(The Guardian) 13 min: Oh dear! Liverpool’s Alexander-Arnold and Matip get in a muddle when trying to play out from the back, after a pass out from Alisson. The ball suddenly drops for Mateta and he’s essentially one-on-one with the Liverpool gloveman. The forward tries to scoop a shot over or around the goalie, but it diverts out for a corner. It wasn’t a convincing effort by any means. And it wasn’t convincing play from Liverpool either. In summary: unconvincing. (Nothing comes of the corner, either.)

(The Guardian) 16 min: Space for Olise to run through midfield for Palace. But they lack numbers, and the move breaks down, in fact after a high boot gives Liverpool a free-kick. Palace are really set up to defend and nick one on the break. It’s symptomatic of their desperate need for a win, of course, but you fancy Liverpool can be “got at” if the hosts are willing to have a go.
18 min: Robertson whips a ball in from the left. It falls kindly for Jota, who belts a sweet shot down the middle, straight at Guaita. The goalie does well to take the heat out of the shot, getting both hands to it and gathering after it bounces. Decent effort by Jota though. Excitement at last! (Sort of.)

(The Guardian) 20 min: Jota tees up Keita on the edge of the hosts’ box. But the Palace defenders snap into a tackle or two and the chance evaporates.
21 min: Liverpool have a free-kick in an advanced area after a foul by Olise. Robertson bends it in, left-footed. Matip gets on the end of it, and loops a half-volleyed cross to the far post, where Jota is lurking. But the ball veers out of play before Jota can head it, and his header bounces back, slightly comically, off the side of the post and out for a goal kick. The Palace fans cheer with delight.

(The Guardian) 23 min: Now Palace have a free kick … Olise whips it in with pace and accuracy. Guehi meets the excellent delivery with a powerful header, and his effort flashes fractionally wide of the far post! Close for Palace …
25 min: The commentator tells us that Joachim Andersen of Palace “has a personal staff of nine” including a defensive consultant. He points out that they are not full-time. But still. Nine staff! In my day we were happy with five or six.

(The Guardian) 27 min: Clyne, the former Liverpool man, crunches into a tackle with Jota on the edge of the box. He goes in the book, but more worryingly, Liverpool have a free-kick right on the edge. Ronald Koeman v Graham Taylor’s England territory. Is Salah going to flick one?
28 min: Salah backheels the set-piece to Alexander-Arnold who hammers a powerful, curling shot that looks destined to nestle in the top corner … but Jordan Henderson accidentally heads it clear! He could not get out of the way of it. That was 1-0 all day. Until the ball hit Henderson’s noggin, that is. The Palace fans cheer again. Much louder this time … but their team are under pressure here.

(The Guardian) 31 min: It’s been brighter in the past 10 minutes. Liverpool are looking a bit slicker in their passing. Palace seemingly remain unable to build any meaningful pressure.
34 min: I say it’s been brighter recently, but it’s still not very good. I had high hopes for tonight… if I was a Palace fan I’d definitely have hoped for a bit more throwing-the-kitchen-sink at Liverpool.
