(The Guardian) 47 mins: Sky claim Jorginho was one of the players going off but I can definitely see his bleached blonde hair. Chelsea are keeping their back three but Azpilicueta is now the man at right wing-back.

(The Guardian) 49 mins: Liverpool have enjoyed all of the possession in this half. It could carry on like this but Chelsea have looked excellent on the break, although without Havertz on the pitch their countering could be impacted.
51 mins: It is all well and good to have all the possession but Liverpool just need to crank up the speed in which they are passing the ball. Salah curls in a lovely cross with the outside of his left boot which Jota sends just over the bar.

Double substitution for Chelsea... -Silva in for Havertz -Kovacic in for Kante Strange sub. They're parking a double decker?

(The Guardian) 53 mins: Van Dijk drives forward from the halfway and whacks a daisycutter from 30 yards which Mendy does well to get down to and palm away, but only to Alexander-Arnold who sends in a dangerous cross, which is cleared by the defence.

(The Guardian) 55 mins: Kovacic leads a breakout by Chelsea and slips the ball through to Lukaku who can only hold up play and wait for support. In the end, Liverpool get back in numbers and the threat is quelled quite easily.

(The Guardian) 57 mins: Lukaku could have a long last 35 minutes of chasing shadows, as Chelsea’s midfielders are eager to release him early to get rid of the ball.

(The Guardian) 59 mins: Salah and Alexander-Arnold combine, with the latter chipping a pass over the defence for the former to chase but Rudiger reads it and knocks the ball out for a corner. Henderson gets the ball 30 yards from goal and tries to curl one into the top corner but it clips Lukaku on the way and ends up going inches wide. Fabinho tries from a similar distance with one that zips across the grass but Mendy palms it clear for a corner. The resulting set-piece is cleared to the edge of the box from where Robertson whacks another shot for Mendy to smartly save. It is all Liverpool.

(The Guardian) 61 mins: Liverpool are dominating possession and firing off shots at will. The loss of Kante in midfield is telling for Chelsea as they do not have much in the way of cover in front of the defence. He is also great when down to 10 men as he does the work of two men.

(The Guardian) 63 mins: Chelsea are doing what they can to slow the game down, with Azpilicueta delaying for a good 30 seconds when taking a throw-in.
65 mins: Ooof! Chelsea break through Mount and Lukaku, with Azipilcueta joining in at the end to cross for Alonso at the back post, allowing him to head the ball into the path of Lukaku whose volley on goal is blocked by Matip.

(The Guardian) 67 mins: Robertson goes through the gears down the left flank and then cross for Salah but the striker can’t control the bounce, resulting in the ball ricocheting off his knee and going backwards.
69 mins: Thiago is readying himself to come on. Chelsea really are wasting a lot of time. Mendy is on a yellow, so he shouldn’t take too many liberties. “Can you confirm that Kante’s injury forced him off?” asks Adam. “Makes no sense otherwise. Chelsea are being overrun without him.” It certainly did.

(The Guardian) 72 mins: Chelsea win a corner after Azpilicueta’s cross is deflected behind. Liverpool are looking a little tired and in need of fresh legs.
74 mins: Thiago replaces Henderson, which is a smart move. The former Barcelona man needs to get things moving in midfield for Liverpool.

(The Guardian) 76 mins: Jorginho is caught on the top of the ankle by Fabinho after clearing the ball but the Brazilian avoids a card once more.
