Match report in news

End of match

90'

FT: That's all for tonight! No goals. Liverpool had more than one chance but were let down by a wasteful Salah and a fantastic performance from Darlow. Newcastle can be happy with taking a point from this lethal Liverpool side.
90'

+4 minutes to play!
87'

Breathtaking stuff! Darlow had to demolish his own defence to punch the ball out from the corner after clearing the ball of his line! Man of the match Darlow for me.
86'

Robertson mouths off to the Schar and the ref, mad that he didn't keep the ball in play? Bizarre.

84'

Hayden gives away a FK in a dangerous place after having lost possession in the first place.

81'

No goals but it's been an entertaining one tonight! It could go either way.
80'

Madness! Now Liverpool come within inches on the other end of the pitch. Darlow pushes it out into Mané who couldn't get an angle to put it away.
79'

ALISSON! To the rescue. NEW puts the ball in the box from the FK and it's headed to the near post. What a save.

78'

Phillips booked for coming in waaaaay late on Murphy as he was breaking on the counter.

77'

Liverpool put ball after ball into the area but by hook or by crook Newcastle are holding on. Deflections and clearances galore. Newcastle are under siege.
76'

Straight into the wall but Mané is then brough down on the otherside of the box for another attempt!
75'

Salah fouled on the right wing. Liverpool line up in the box.

67'

Firmino heads it wide from a Corner! Liverpool are goal hungry.
65'

Fantastic team effort. Firmino with brilliant control beats his man and puts Salah through on goal who finesses the ball just wide. Great stuff.

64'

Milner booked for bringing down Joelinton.

62'

Mané brought down in a central position. LIV play it short and cross it in but the attack is headed out.
58'

Newcastle string an impressive few passess together on the counter but the attack is killed by a poor cross that Alisson picks out with no issue. Liverpool only seem to be picking up momentum in between the Newcastle attacks.
53'

Mané!!! Heads it just wide from the corner. He could not have been much closer...
51'

Second half starting with a bang as both teams counter each others counter attacks! End to end football that is hard to keep up with. We won't be waiting long for goals if this keeps up much longer!

48'

Yedlin fouled by Fabinho. Deserved yellow and in a dangerous place.

46'

We're off for the second half!
45'

Steve Bruce will surely be pleased! Newcastle has been the better of the two sides in the first half, even if Darlow has saved them a couple of times.
42'

Yedlin to the rescue! Salah was through almost one on one but Yedlin came from nowhere with a great challenge to clear the ball.
41'

Liverpool have woken up towards the end of the half. That's not to say Newcastle have switched off, it's still anyone's game!
39'

Murphy strikes it from far out but Alisson saw that one a mile off.
38'

FK cleared to the wing where Liverpool manage to get a GK.
37'

Newcastle win a FK near the half-way line and deliver into the box.
33'

Salah through 1 on 1 but Darlow gets just enough on it to flick it out wide! Fantastic save. Salah doesn't miss those often.
31'

Firmino takes a bad touch just yards out after collecting the ball from a wide cross. Clark was ready for the touch and cleared it promptly.
30'

Darlow rises and collects the Liverpool corner with ease.
27'

Even as Liverpool pick up more and more of the possession they are failing to threaten this Newcastle side. Very poor performance so far from the Reds. It only takes a moment of magic to change that.
25'

Milner crosses the ball back to A-A who hits it first time straight into the arms of the keeper. It was Arnold who started the attack with a great long ball but he could not finish it.
23'

And break they do! Mané couldn't pick out Firmino on the far post and the attack is cleared.
22'

Liverpool have so far had no answer to Newcastle who continue to press the attack. Liverpool waiting to break on the counter.
21'

Newcastle on the attack but Liverpool have their entire team back to defend. They do not want to go behind early!
19'

Nothing comes of the corner and Robertson runs back on after taking a slight knock.
18'

Newcastle take the corner against 10 men as Robertson has gone off injured.
17'

Great start from Newcastle so far. Liverpool haven't looked their usual threatening selves.
15'

Millner strikes from AA's cross but it was straight at the keeper.
13'

Newcastle haven't been afraid to give it a go so far! Interesting game to watch as Liverpool haven't had much of the ball in the attacking half.
12'

Wilson makes a dangerous run. He beat Phillips and Fabinho had to pull across to block his shot!

11'

Clark booked for bringing down Miller on the wing.

11'

Well defended so far, it will only take one mistake for this Liverpool attack to capitalise!
10'

Liverpool break on the counter.
8'

Fabinho clashes heads with a defender and the ball goes out for another corner.
7'

Liverpool win a corner! They've not had many chances so far.
6'

Murphy heads it wide after Liverpool held a high line! It was offside anyway but very close!
3'

Corner is headed wide by Newcastle.
2'

Alisson had to help Wilson's cross over the bar! Newcastle corner.

1'

We are off!

Start of match

Not long to go! Let's hope for a Crystal Palace scoreline rather than a West Brom one... I'm not picky which way the scoring goes either.

Thiago makes his way onto the bench tonight, will he make an appearance?

Newcastle fans have not been happy with the team's style of plat, despite the decent results. Liverpool should expect a slog tonight, similar to what happened at West Brom.

LIVERPOOL XI: Alisson; Alexander-Arnold, Phillips, Fabinho, Robertson; Milner, Henderson, Jones; Salah, Firmino, Mane.
