  • 95'
    It's the final whistle! Liverpool hang on for another win to keep them top of the table for now, but Leicester should have had a least a point based on their performance. Puel will probably be the happier of the managers, despite losing the game.
  • 93'
    Schmeichel comes up for the corner, and almost gets his head on it but there's a foul given to Liverpool just after.
  • 90'
    Five added minutes here.
  • 88'
    Matip replaces Alexander-Arnold for Liverpool.
  • 82'
    Maddison is off and gets a standing ovation. No less than he deserves, he's been excellent. Amartey on.
  • 78'
    Ben Chilwell with some brave defending there, and is hit by the ball in an area that justifies him staying down for a minute or two...
  • 74'
    Okozaki comes on for Gray.

    Salah and Henderson are off, with Shaqiri and Keita coming on.
  • 63'
    WHAT A HOWLER!!! Leicester score after Alisson gets caught trying to do a Cruyff turn in his own box, and is dispossesed by Iheanecho who feeds Ghezzal to knock it home.
  • 57'
    Mo Salah is not doing well today. He tries to feed the ball back to Milner after the path to goal for himself is blocked, but his ball is poor and cleared by the home side.
  • 56'
    HOW DID HE MISS? Admittedly he's a centre-back, but Wes Morgan had a chance to tap in from close range and can't control it. Golden chance!
  • 55'
    Van Dijk brings down Maddison on the edge of the box, and is in to the book.
  • 52'
    Excellent again from Maddison, who drops his should and gets a shot away, but it's well blocked by Gomez. Leicester have started brightly.
  • 50'
    Maddison picks up the ball at the edge of the box and tries a shot, but it's straight down the throat of Alisson.
  • 46'
    Leicester kick off the second 45.
  • 45'
    That's the end of the first half. Leicester will feel very disappointed with that, as they've dominated the centre of the park for good periods. However, Liverpool have been very solid and the back and clinical in attack.
Goal
Goaaaaaal!
de Liverpool en el 45'
  • 45'
    GOAL!!!! FIRMINO! The striker just gets a yard on his marker, and nods in a corner very well despite the best efforts from the Leicester keeper.
  • 43'
    Salah pops up for a rare occasion in this game, and tries to bend one in to the corner from outside the box but Schmeichel is equal to it.
  • 37'
    A stoppage in play as Milner is down, but he gets back to his feet eventually,
  • 30'
    Salah really struggling to get in to the game, as he tries to run away from Mendy and is easily dispossessed.
  • 22'
    Leicester have their first chance on goal through Gray, but Alisson does well to get down and save the shot.
  • 18'
    Yet another chance for Firmino to find someone in the box, but he can't quite pick out Mane. It's all Liverpool in the attacking areas.
  • 16'
    It's pace against pace here, as Leicester try to break with Demarai Gray but lose the ball thanks to the quick pressing of Gomez and Salah.
Goal
Goaaaaaal!

  • 10'
    GOAL!!!! That's ruthless from Liverpool. Robertson worms his way in to the box, and feeds the ball across to Mane who stabs the ball under Schmeichel!
  • 6'
    Another good attacking move from Liverpool sees Firmino in the box, but he can't drive towards the goal because of an excellent challenge from Ghezzal.
  • 4'
    What a chance to take the lead! Firmino gets through on goal, but his shot is directly at Schmeichel, and Mo Salah misses his chance on the follow up. Could've been the perfect start for the Reds.
  • 1'
    Liverpool kick the game off.
