Reina's long kick is too long. And that must be it.
- 90'
Rafa woe...he looks riled.
- 90'
Nearly there...
- 90'
Woodgate heads clear. Huddlestone hoofs clear. Reina can only smash it off.

And Babel fouls Corluka. We're 90 seconds from glory, glory Tottenham Hotspur.

Liverpool raising their game. They need to. Babel skews it off Corluka. Corner ball.

Late show drama again from happy Harry Hotspur. I said they were hanging on.

Liverpool - are they hanging on here?
- 89'
Four minutes of time added to come...
- 88'
Liverpool not really pressing but you get the idea they may get one chance.
- 87'
Bentley with a nice, curved free-kick. Smashed away.
- 86'
Lennon fouled again. Kuyt unhappy but he's not booked for his protests.

Lennon on the ball. He's surrounded and gives it away.

But no. Nice of the ref. Woodgate nearly got on the end of a crossed ball.

- 82'
This game is now petering towards a draw. Good for Spurs after the first period.
- 81'
Arbeloa fouls Corluka. Liverpool frustration.
- 80'
Chance begging. Reina went on safari. Awful punch and then Pavlyuchenko has time to shoot. But misses with a shot that is too high and far from handsome.
- 79'
Liverpool could do with a win after Chelsea and United both won. I think we can agree that Arsenal are cooked - they've lost to Hull and Stoke now.
- 79'
Nice move from Spurs and then a ball into the middle finds Pavlyuchenko chasing it. He can't get there.

Long hoof finds Bent chasing but Bent is unable to get to it before Reina.
- 76'
Benayoun is coming on. Riera is the man to go.
- 75'
Kuyt played in by Arbeloa. Good chance to shoot but this time he's off target.
