Liverpool 2-0 Chelsea

45 mins: A switch of play flicks the ball into the box where Virgil van Dijk chests the ball down to Diogo Jota. As he’s collecting the ball, Benoit Badisahile steps on his foot and Jota hits the deck.

The referee points straight at the spot.

42 mins: Another VAR check was needed to see whether a tangle between Jota and Chilwell played a part in the goal but the video referee says that the goal stands.

Axel Disasi earns himself a yellow card. It’s the third one Chelsea have collected. Things aren’t going well at all for Mauricio Pochettino’s men.

39 mins: What a finish!

It’s the youngster for Liverpool who adds a second. Luis Diaz receives the ball in the middle of the park, shrugs off a tackle and feeds it over to Bradley on the right side of the pitch.

He’s made advancing runs all night and this time goes it alone, carrying the ball into the box before sliding a wonderful finish into the far bottom corner.

36 mins: Dominik Szoboszlai takes a free kick about 25-yards out from goal and drills his shot straight into the wall. Liverpool look to recycle the ball and maintain the attack but Chelsea get out quickly and force them to retreat.

When Chelsea do regain possession they work it over to Ben Chilwell. He weaves and bobs his way into the box and goes to ground. Ibrahima Konate stuck out a leg but didn’t make contact with the Chelsea left back and Chilwell goes in the book for diving.

33 mins: Gallagher is Chelsea’s driving force. He’s throwin himself around, making runs with the ball and trying to halt Liverpool’s momentum.

Curtis Jones is then hacked down by Enzo Fernandez who gets himself a yellow card.

30 mins: There’s a confidence and a zip to Liverpool’s play. They’re working the ball from side to side and are taking shots whenever they get close to the box.

Curtis Jones curls a low effort towards goal and forces another sharp save out of Petrovic. The Chelsea goalkeeper is earning his spot tonight.

26 mins: Liverpool deserved to take the lead. They’ve been the more proactive side so far in this match with the forward line linking up beautifully.

The intent has been there but now Chelsea need to respond.
