Southampton vs Liverpool LIVE: Premier League result and final score as Salah strikes twice in thriller

47 mins

Lovely stuff from the hosts, primarily from Onuachu, as he beats about four challenges while holding the ball up near his own area, and eventually skips through before releasing it to Walker-Peters, who himself produces a bit of quality in skipping past a challenge. The chance does break down though, as Aribo’s cross is cleared.

45 mins

There’ll be six minutes of added time here!

VAR are checking for a penalty as Nunez is down in the box...

44 mins

Southampton give it away near their own area again, and it’s almost a repeat of the first goal as Gakpo gets free in the area, but his shot is blocked.

42 mins

GOAL!

And the hosts are level!

Armstrong steps up and fires his penalty too close to Kelleher. it’s a decent save but it bounces straight back out to Armstrong, who pokes it in at the second time of asking!

40 mins

PENALTY!

The hosts have a penalty, but was the foul in the box?

Van Dijk gives away possession in his own half and Dibling pounces, driving towards the box before he’s scythed down by Robertson.

On first glance it looks just outside the box, but there’s a VAR check...

And it’s given! Robertson’s foot was on the line, apparently.

39 mins

Aribo’s first involvement sees him create the space for a cross, but it’s eventually dealt with by the Liverpool defence.

37 mins

Lallana does come off, and he’s replaced by Joe Aribo. We’re back underway.

35 mins

The ball is kicked out for Lallana to receive treatment, and it looks like his day could be done.

32 mins

Half a chance for the Saints as Walker-Peters’ cross is eventually turned behind for a corner, but the set-piece routine is poor. It doesn’t matter in the end though, as the home side regain possession and have their first big chance of the game, as Downes hits a shot on the turn that forces a good save from Kelleher.

30 mins

GOAL!

Liverpool were beginning to turn the screw and now they lead, but the home side were at fault!

McCarthy has the ball in his hands and he rolls it out to a defender, but they’re immediately under pressure. Downes tries to clear from his own box, but it falls to Szoboszlai, who still has plenty to do as he curls in a great effort off the inside of the far post.
