West Ham vs Liverpool LIVE: Premier League result and final score as Reds slump continues in title race blow

89 mins: OFF THE BAR! Super strike from Elliott, after Salah led the Liverpool break, but it rattles against the crossbar! That was so close to another late Liverpool winner, as Liverpool hit the frame of the goal for the second time today.

86 mins: West Ham survive a scramble in the box as Areola finally claims, before Gakpo tries one of the cheekiest goals of the season after the West Ham goalkeeper puts the ball on the pitch before taking his kick. Bit of a weird one this, but it looks like the referee did blow for a free-kick.

Gakpo stopped anyway.

83 mins: CLOSE! Almost an immediate impact from Salah, as his cross almost picks out Nunez. Coufal covered it really well, though, and got across to cut it out.

80 mins: Liverpool were planning to make their triple change anyway, before Antonio’s header. But here it is: Salah, Nunez and Gomez are on for Diaz, Alexander-Arnold and Endo.

It looks like there was a bit of an argument between Salah and Klopp on the touchline, just after that Antonio goal.

And there it is! What a cross this is from Bowen, as Antonio perhaps punishes a bit of inexperience from Quansah to get away from the centre-back. Bowen cuts inside and picks out Antonio, who heads into the top corner!

Level again!

76 mins: West Ham have been clear second best since half-time but is this the start of the response? Some pressure lifts the home fans and Emerson’s strike forces a save from Alisson.

73 mins: SAVE! Diaz again, released down the left! This time he cuts inside Zouma but can’t beat Areola with his strike, as the goalkeeer makes a one-handed save. Then another chance as Diaz wriggles away and plays in Robertson - Areola is called into action again but saves easily at his near post.

Liverpool are preparing a triple change, with Salah, Nunez and Gomez preparing to come on.

70 mins: Chance! Gakpo turns well and releases Diaz, but Ogbonna gets across. Then Alexander-Arnold lifts a cross Mac Allister, who can’t get enough on the header to beat Areola.

It had been coming! From the corner, Liverpool take the lead! It fell to Gakpo at the back post and it squirms through via a host of deflections! Gakpo’s strike comes off Ogbonna, then hits off Soucek and Areola on the line, before going in.

Liverpool lead and they’ve been much better after half-time.

63 mins: A nice turn from Gravenberch leads to Gakpo having a chance in the box, but Ogbonna is able to step in and West Ham can eventually clear. There’s then a decent interplay between Gakpo and Mac Allister, which doesn’t lead to the shot. Gravenberch lines one up from range but it’s deflected wide.

The threat is rising...
