End of match

  • 93'
    It's all over and perhaps the fairest of outcomes as the points are shared at Anfield. Willian equalised Salah's opener with five minutes to go.
  • 90'
    3 added minutes.
  • 90'
    Salah comes so close with a shot from the edge of the box Courtois superbly parries away.
  • 88'
    Oxlade-Chamberlain and Coutinho are replaced by Mane and Lallana.
  • 84'
    Goal! Willian scores! It had been coming, with Liverpool pinned inside their own area. Willian picks up the ball outside the box and makes a run across the face of goal before attempting to find Morata with a cross that turned into a brilliant shot. It looped over Mignolet before nestling in the far corner.
  • 82'
    Willian replaces Zappacosta.
  • 81'
    Hazard's cross brilliantly finds Alonso at the back post but the left-back skies his effort.
  • 80'
    Courtois gets down well to save after Wijnaldum is stopped from getting a decent header from the corner.
  • 79'
    The crossfield pass finds Alonso in the left channel but Gomez gets back well to get a sliding challenge in.
  • 78'
    Smart play from Liverpool's defence as Morata releases Hazard, but the Belgian is called offside.
  • 77'
    Now Liverpool are finding more spaces. Wijnaldum's shot is deflected off Cahill.
  • 76'
    Pedro on for Bakayoko.
  • 73'
    Fabregas on for Drinkwater.

at Liverpool
  • 66'
    Sturridge is replaced by Wijnaldum.
  • 64'
    Goal Liverpool! Salah! Oxlade-Chamberlain with the through ball and Chelsea's back line is pried open for the first time this evening. Salah slides the ball past Courtois and there's no celebration from the former Chelsea man.
  • 63'
    Either side could win this. It's still goalless but the tempo is great.
  • 62'
    Salah feeds the ball for Sturridge and his shot is blocked. End-to-end here.
  • 61'
    Drinkwater crosses from the right and the ball is too quick for Morata to react as it comes off the striker and out for a goal kick.
  • 59'
    Chelsea come close! Zappacosta drills a low ball into the six-yard box and Azpilicueta or Morata cannot get a touch.
  • 58'
    Chelsea have been well organised and Liverpool are being made to be very patient.
  • 57'
    Sturridge plays the ball into the box and Liverpool want a penalty as it comes off Christensen's arm. Nothing given.
  • 54'
    Henderson has a go from distance but it's straight at Courtois.
  • 52'
    Coutinho brought down 30 yards out in a central area, but his free-kicks hits the wall.
  • 50'
    Cahill gets on the end of Hazard's corner but it's always going wide.
  • 49'
    Courtois with a howler and Liverpool almost take the lead. Sturridge turns and flicks a weak effort towards goal. The keeper spills it and it's out for a corner.
  • 47'
    Hazard back into his stride after the break. Can Liverpool contain him?
  • 45'
    Chelsea get the second half underway! No changes at the break.
  • 45'
    Both teams are back out with everything to play for!
  • 45'
    The first half comes to an end and there's still no breaking the deadlock. Liverpool have dominated possession and Chelsea have had the clearest chances on the break. More to come after the break!
  • 45'
    1 added minute.
  • 43'
    Hazard nudges Coutinho inside the area and the Brazilian goes down. The referee says no penalty.
  • 42'
    Morata hasn't been involved much this evening. He picks up the ball 30 yards out and drags a shot wide. A corner is given.
  • 40'
    The crowd getting anxious, but Salah turns just outside the box before sending a curling strike inches wide of the far post.
  • 38'
    Referee Michael Oliver slipped and the travelling supporters responded brilliantly: "Are you Gerrard in disguise?"
  • 38'
    Kante and Oxlade-Chamberlain collide in the air and the Englishman is fine to continue after going down.
  • 37'
    Chelsea are holding a good shape in defence and midfield and have had the clearest chances of the half. Shows you possession isn't everything.
  • 32'
    Drinkwater clatters into Moreno and the referee has a word with him. Still no bookings.
  • 31'
    Marcos Alonso! The left-back comes very close as his well-struck free-kick curls just wide of the post.
  • 30'
    Matip brings down Morata at the edge of the box. Alonso can go for goal from 25 yards and we know he can score these...
  • 29'
    Hazard and Salah looking lively at either end. What a showdown in Anfield!
  • 27'
    Chelsea have stepped it up. Will Liverpool regret not capitalising on their initial dominance.
  • 26'
    Salah gets into the area, twists and turns before his shot is blocked by Christensen. Good defending.
  • 24'
    The resulting corner is almost turned in by a Chelsea player after a pinball in the area, but the ball is scrambled away.
  • 23'
    Mignolet saves again! Zappacosta sends a thumping strike towards goal and the keeper palms it away. Chelsea have come to life.
  • 22'
    Drinkwater through on goal and Mignolet does well to close in on him. What a chance for the Englishman!
  • 20'
    Hazard comes close! Out of nowhere, the Belgian cuts in from the left and fires into the near post from the edge of the box. Mignolet equal to it to push it away for a corner.
  • 19'
    Chelsea finding it increasingly harder to get the ball out, as they immediately look for Hazard when they win the ball back. Too many passes going astray.
  • 16'
    Chelsea are happy to just give the ball away to Liverpool. The question is, can they hold on like this for 90 minutes?
  • 14'
    Over 70 per cent possession for the Reds and they are starting to wear down the visitors. Milner is found at the edge of the box but the captain slices it wide. Should have done better.
  • 12'
    The hosts seeing more of the ball in the opening stages, but Hazard is a constant threat on the break.
  • 9'
    Sturridge brings the long ball down for Salah, but the Egyptian fires over. Sturridge with a great run to open up some space, which is what Klopp is expecting from him.
  • 7'
    A few misplaced passes with both sides eager to open the scoring. Good defending so far.
  • 5'
    Nice passage of play from Liverpool. Courtois gathers the deflected ball from Milner's shot.
  • 4'
    Hazard whips a dangerous ball into the middle of the box. Sturridge clears.
  • 3'
    Klopp's plan is apparently to keep the ball, but they have to be careful when dispossessed. Hazard gets the ball at the halfway line and races towards goal. His pass for Morata comes to nothing, though.
  • 2'
    Liverpool on the ball early on. Chelsea, with Hazard and Morata as the front two, trying to press the Reds' back line.
  • 1'
    The hosts get the super clash underway!
