Brentford vs Liverpool LIVE: Premier League result and final score after Bryan Mbeumo seals win

75 min: Two Brentford changes: Mathias Jensen and Yoane Wissa are off, Josh Dasilva and Keane Lewis-Potter are on.

72 min: Darwin Nunez is booked for dissent. It looked like he was being fouled but he then shoved his marker to the ground, and that is how the robust debate with the referee began.

69 min: Darwin Nunez screws a shot across goal, a poor finish. Time is ticking away.

63 min: A bit of a lull in the game. Liverpool are most certainly the dominant force right now - Jurgen Klopp’s half-time changes and teamtalk have had an effect - but they are struggling to carve out chances after that initial second-half rush.

60 min: Thiago has started to pull the strings in Liverpool’s midfield, and he also gets a couple of shots away - the latter is deflected away for a corner, but Brentford deal with it comfortably.

57 min: Thiago wipes out a dashing Wissa and picks up a yellow card - probably a ‘good yellow’ in the sense of stopping a Brentford counter, and something Liverpool could have shown more of in the first half. On the bench, Van Dijk has some strapping on his leg, so it would seem his half-time change was for injury while the other two switches were tactical. Andy Robertson in particular has injected lots of energy.

54 min: Fabinho spins and drives from midfield before letting fly with a low effort which is parried away by Raya.

What a game this is! The ball is over the goalline for the sixth time in the match and this is one that counts. It’s a stunning cross by Trent Alexander-Arnold off his left foot from the right-hand side, perfectly on to Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain’s head who guides it into the far corner. A much better start to the half by Liverpool.

What a finish by Darwin Nunez, flicking the ball over David Raya after racing through on goal, but VAR steps in to rule it out - he was just offside.

Back under way, and Jurgen Klopp has made three half-time changes:

Virgil van Dijk, Kostas Tsimikas and Harvey Elliott are off. Joel Matip, Andrew Robertson and Naby Keita are on.
