Play by play
- 90'
After such a poor first half, the second was a welcome change. United probably deserved the victory, but had to withstand a huge onslaught at the end
- 90'
And there goes the final whistle
- 90'
Gerrard picks a fine ball through the centre - Heskey's there and he simply can't miss... but he fresh-airs it and it runs behind for the goal kick. Liverpool won't get a better chance at this late stage
- 90'
Fletcher gets away from his man, but with Van Nistelrooy lurking gets the pass all wrong
- 90'
Two minutes to be added on
- 89'
Gerrard's free-kick is poor and headed clear
- 88'

- 87'
Liverpool are on the brink of losing yet again, meaning they will be 13 points off the top of the table. Time out for Houllier?

Liverpool seem to have lost the momentum. Is their challenge dead?
- 83'
Quinton Fortune is replaced by Darren Fletcher
- 82'
Heskey just fails to get on the end of Finnan's cross, another scare
- 82'
Free-kick against Van Nistelrooy, no restbite for United
- 81'
Heskey knocks it down for Murphy - in on goal, it must be the leveller - but it's a fine last ditch tackle from Silvestre to thwart the England international
- 80'
Howard makes a horrendous error to gift the ball to Sinama. He dawdles and feeds Le Tallec far too late, the move breaks down
- 79'
It's all Liverpool now. Le Tallec finds space in the box but is forced wide. Finnan crosses in only for Le Tallec to head over
- 78'
Sinama breaks into the box and closes down on goal, Ferdinand gets back and makes a fine challenge just as Sinama was about to round Howard. It's a humdinger now
- 78'
Gerrard has acres of space and opts for the curling ball into the box. It's poor and straight to Howard
- 77'
Liverpool have their tails up now, what a difference a goal can make
- 76'
That came from nothing really, and Kewell did well to keep his shot down and beat Howard
- 75'
Sinama does well to get to the byline, crosses to the back stick and Kewell arrives late to fire home. 2-1 and game on!

Corner to United - Liverpool look a beaten side
