Liverpool vs Man City LIVE: Premier League result, final score and reaction as Mohamed Salah seals narrow win

87 mins: Young slides the ball into the box for Ings who backheels it into the middle but Azpilicueta is aware enough to send it behind for a corner.

Young jogs up the pitch to take it but his delivery is easily cleared by Thiago Silva.

84 mins: Sterling shimmies away from Mings and squeezes into the right side of the box before firing a shot straight at Emi Martinez who clings onto the ball.

Chelsea sense that there are more goals to be got here. Villa haven’t given up but there’s nowhere near the same focus from the home side as they showed 20 minutes ago.

81 mins: Mount’s impressive performance takes a dint as he collects a yellow card for a poor challenge. Villa haven’t created anything since the second goal went it, they’re running on fumes and are running out of time.

78 mins: The game is meandering along to a Chelsea victory at the moment as Aston Villa seem bereft of creativity. They’re penned in their own half and Mount takes the ball off Matty Cash before winning his side a throw in.

75 mins: Philippe Coutinho has also come on for Aston Villa who now have just 15 minutes to get something out of this game. John McGinn is the man replaced.

For their part Chelsea look pretty comfortable now. Young gives away a free kick and Azpilicueta knocks it across to Chelsea substitute Jorginho, he’s on for Kovacic.

Liverpool XI: Alisson, Milner, Gomez, Van Dijk, Robertson, Fabinho, Thiago, Elliott, Jota, Firmino, Salah

Man City XI: Ederson, Akanji, Dias, Ake, Cancelo, Rodrigo, De Bruyne, Gundogan, Bernardo, Haaland, Foden

71 mins: Conor Gallagher shifts his away around Danny Ings on the right side of the pitch before lifting a cross to Raheem Sterling who fires his effort wide of the near post!

68 mins: The scoreline doesn’t do Aston Villa justice who have been good today. They’ve just come up against a fine performance from Kepa Arrizabalaga and Mason Mount with an eye for goal.

Steven Gerrard makes a change with Emiliano Buendia coming on to replace Leon Bailey.

65 mins: Fantastic! At the other end of the pitch Chelsea win a free kick of their own with Mason Mount and Ben Chilwell standing over the deadball.

It’s Mount who takes it and he whips the ball over the wall before getting enough dip to take it past Emi Martinez and underneath the crossbar!

Chelsea double their lead.

63 mins: Mason Mount gives the ball away to Jacob Ramsey who flies up the pitch. Kalidu Koulibaly has to cover and comes across to sandwich the Aston Villa midfielder between himself and Mount to stop the run. The effort sees him collect a yellow card.

Villa’s resultant free kick is floated into the box where Arrizabalaga punches it away. The goalkeeper manages to get back in position as John McGinn hits the dropping ball on the volley and forces another sharp save from the Chelsea man.
