Play by play

94'
There we are. All done and dusted. Chelsea go through, but second in the group so they may get another big side in the next stage. Apart from a little wobble after the equaliser, they were good value for it. Until next time.
93'
I did elaborate on the corner but our gamecast tool decided to delete it. I mean the software, not an actual person who we refer to as the gamecast tool.
92'
Muresan smashes one over the bar after Deco had brought down Alcantara.
91'
Free-kick CLuj.
90'
Cluj win a corner. Four minutes added on time.

Cluj win a corner. Four minutes added on time.
89'
Terry prevents Culio from getting into the box with the ball, but seems he was offside anyway.
88'
Bridge's first involvement is to fizz in a delicious cross to the near post which Drogba nearly connects with. Corner.
87'
Mikel is off and Wayne Bridge comes on.
85'
Ballack is the latest to force Claro into a save before Mikel's cross has the keeper charging out, Bosingwa rounds him but can only find Cadu with his cross.
84'
My soccernet colleague Dale is elated as Leon Clarke gives Sheffield Wednesday the lead against QPR. We all can surely feel his joy.
82'
Belletti gives into the crowd's demands for a shot by forcing Claro into a low save.
80'
Mikel gets a booking for a reckless challenge. Could easily have been a red.
79'
And Roma now lead Bordeaux 2-0. Game, well and truly, over.
78'
David Ngog scores to make it PSV 1-3 Liverpool.
77'
Drogba shows he can execute a raking pass too by picking out Bosingwa. He then fires a left shot well over the bar.
76'
I wonder if Scolari will start with Anelka AND Drogba up front when the Ivorian completes his ban? They certainly need the firepower at home don't they?
75'
Belletti gets a booking for a late lunge on Pereira. Warranted too.
74'
Belletti on for Joe Cole.
73'
Makes it all the more annoying that Drogba's petulance has cost him a three-match Premier League ban eh?
72'
Job done.
71'
In truth, a lovely goal. A super dink from Mikel releases Joe Cole, he chips in for Drogba to take and then finish in two sublime touches.
71'
DROGBA! GOAL!
69'
Two poor crosses come in from Deco and then Bosingwa. Then Ballack dinks into the box looking for Drogba and Claro is out sharply.
68'
Albert Riera has scored a beauty to give Liverpool the lead at PSV.
