2. 94'

   Gerrard opened the scoring shortly after Ward's muddled dismissal and a deflected shot from Benayoun made it 2-0. It's a much-needed victory for Rafa Benitez and Liverpool will be happy with to get back to winning ways.

3. 94'

   It's all over! Liverpool claim a 2-0 win over ten-man Wolves.

4. 94'

   Gerrard fires a ball across the area but Elokobi heads away.

5. 94'

   Pacheco looks to cross one in but Elokobi blocks it. We're into the final minute.

6. 92'

   Lucas lobs it in but it's headed out.

7. 91'

   Foley nearly gets on the end of a long ball, but Insua holds him off and Reina gathers. At the other end, Liverpool win a corner from Elokobi.

8. 89'

   Kuyt angles a ball into the area, but there's no one there and it goes straight to the keeper.

9. 88'

   Torres looks to play in Benayoun but it doesn't quite come off. It's the midfielder's final involvement in the game as he is replaced by Spearing, seemingly limping as he's withdrawn.

10. 88'

    Wolves are appealing for a handball against Agger in the area, but Marriner waves away the appeals.

11. 87'

    Kuyt brings down Henry as the Wolves midfielder looks to bring the ball out of defence.

12. 86'

    Pacheco finds Torres in the box, but his backheel fails to finds its target.

13. 84'

    Aquilani comes off to be replaced by youngster Pacheco.

14. 82'

    Gerrard's cross is easily claimed by the keeper. Liverpool are in complete control at this stage.

15. 81'

    Really poor pass from Aquilani, straight out of play. The Italian has at times looked excellent today, but at others been sloppy.

16. 80'

    Gerrard is played in on the right of the area and sees his cross deflected over the bar by Elokobi, but it's a goal kick.

17. 79'

    Johnson nearly finds himself in trouble as he takes an age to clear the ball under pressure from Jarvis, but he wins the throw-in.

18. 78'

    Benayoun heads just over after Aquilani and Johnson did well.

19. 76'

    Elokobi does well to take the ball from Benayoun as he looks to break into the box.

20. 76'

    Kuyt comes on in place of Aurelio.

21. 75'

    Jarvis bursts down the left and chips a ball into the area, but he can't find the target.

22. 74'

    Benayoun produces some skill to drift into the field, but his through ball for Torres doesn't quite come off.

23. 73'

    Torres curls in a shot on goal from the edge of the area, but it's easy for Hahnemann. He's looked well short of full form and fitness today.

24. 72'

    Gerrard looks to find Torres with a clever pass with the outside of the boot, but Hahnemann is able to gather it up with no difficulty.

25. 69'

    The cross from out on the left finds Benayoun and his shot takes a deflection from Henry before beating Hahnemann. Liverpool should be home and dry now.
