Play by play
- 90'
That's that! It's Liverpool who go into the hat for Monday's fifth round draw, and Bruno Cheyrou is their match-winner
- 90'
That could be their last chance! Shearer turns well on the edge of the box and thumps in his shot, but Dudek produces a flying stop, and the resulting corner is poor
- 90'
Bobby Robson doesn't look too happy in the dugout, but Woodgate lumbers forward to join the attack
- 90'
Kewell attempts to wile away a few vital seconds by shielding the ball next to the corner flag. But there'll be three minutes of added time
- 90'
Owen's centre deflects off O'Brien and Given carries the looping cross over the byline, much as he protests otherwise
- 89'
Play up and running again, and Newcastle seem to have been robbed of a bit of momentum by Hamann's injury
- 88'
Hamann still down and receiving treatment, which could make for an uncomfortably long period of stoppage time for the home side
- 87'
Woodgate punished as his attempt to control a high ball leaves Hamann with a bloody nose. Not deliberate, but nasty for the German all the same
- 86'
Henchoz and Hyypia are commanding the box well from Robert's corners, and Newcastle are forced to build again
- 85'
Bernard is seeing a bit of the ball now on the Newcastle left, and although his centre is poor, he gets a corner
- 84'
Small signs of a Newcastle revival, and Ameobi has added nuisance value up front. Time running out, though
- 82'
Fine delivery from Robert and with Speed threatening, Hyypia manages to head behind. This time, Robert's kick is terrible and Liverpool clear
- 81'
No great sense of urgency about Newcastle just at the moment. But they have a chance as Henchoz fouls Ameobi near the corner flag. The Swiss defnder is shown the game's first yellow card
- 79'
Carragher crunches into a tackle and tries an ambitious left-footer from 30 yards. It doesn't trouble Given
- 78'
Cheyrou is left in acres of space from Le Tallec's flick, but he's bustled off the ball with the hat-trick headlines in his sights
- 77'
Liverpool look the more likely scorers as Finnan and Hamann work an opening. O'Brien hacks away for a corner, which is met and headed wide again by Hyypia
- 76'
Houllier is out of his seat to bark a few instructions at Le Tallec
- 75'
Wicked delivery from Gerrard this time, and Hyypia's near-post glance flashes across Given's goal and out of play
- 74'
Finnan bounds on to a neat Le Tallec flick, and his cross goes all the way through to Carragher, whose muscle earns his side a corner
- 73'
Ameobi heads away from his own six-yard box, but Liverpool keep the ball in the danger area
- 73'
Kewell tries a bit of trickery on the left, but Hughes keeps calm to clear - at the expense of a corner
- 72'
Jenas picks out a superb pass for the second time this evening, but Dyer slips as he attempts to get a shot away
- 71'
Hyypia intervenes as Ameobi lopes forward, but the Finn is forced to concede a corner. Gerrard heads away at the near post
- 69'
Dyer shows a bit of defensive discipline to deny Owen a shot, but when the ball is helped back in Le Tallec has a shooting chance. Too high again
- 68'
That was Solano's last act of the evening, and he goes off to be replaced by a striker - Shola Ameobi
