Play by play
- 96'
Full time and an entertaining second half. Arsenal were poor but they've got out of jail after an error from Pepe Reina. Both teams will probably be happy with a point when the dust has settled.
- 95'

- 94'
Walcott scampers down the right and crosses, but Vermaelen manages to head it backwards.

Vermaelen nods wide from an Arsenal corner but the whistle had gone for a foul on Reina.
- 87'
An almighty scramble in the six yard box as Nasri meets a cross at the back post. Skrtel eventually clears as Walcott desperately tried to stab the ball home.
- 86'
The best bit of football from Arsenal as Rosicky gets the ball from Van Persie and shoots but Reina makes a first class save.
- 85'
<img src="http://soccernet-assets.espn.go.com/design05/gp10/i/yellow_card.jpg" height="15"> Rosicky is booked for clattering Gerrard, when perhaps it should be the Liverpool captain getting his second. Both are alright to continue after a meaty collision.
- 84'
Agger is still off the field and looks very groggy. He's preparing to come back on it looks like but I don't think he's too chuffed at the prospect.
- 83'
Torres turns Koscielny and goes down under a tug but Martin Atkinson denies him a penalty. It would have been a soft award.
- 82'
Sagan turns in an awful ball and Arsenal are running out of time and ideas. They've been seriously poor today.

- 77'
Van Persie looks to slide in Chamakh but Carragher is there. This will be backs to the wall for Liverpool you feel, as Torres tests Koscielny for pace.
- 76'
<img src="http://soccernet-assets.espn.go.com/design05/gp10/i/subs.gif"> Diaby makes way for Van Persie. Wenger's final throw of the dice.

And in response, Wenger now readies Robin van Persie.
