Play by play

  1. 93'

    Liverpool progress to the quarter-finals after dumping out Barcelona who have been awful over the two legs.

  2. 93'

    FULL-TIME: LIVERPOOL 0-1 BARCELONA: Liverpool go through on away goals

  3. 92'

    That famous anthemn rings around Anfield and that can only mean one thing. They're on the verge of another win. And they deserve it. Benitez has got his tactics spot on and his players have followed his instruction to the letter.

  4. 91'

    Wonderful chance for Crouch after a lovely Pennant cross. The big man did well to get to the near post and make contact, but he conuldn't keep it down and it balloons over.

  5. 90'

    Three minutes will be added, but in truth, Barca need about 33.

  6. 89'

    Crouch comes on for Kuyt as Liverpool look to hang on for just a few more minutes.

  7. 88'

    Barca are becoming their own worst enemy by wasting shots, giving away passes and handing over possession.

  8. 85'

    It's all hands to the pump for Liverpool and Steve Finnan twice blocks Gudjohnsen in his tracks and Liverpool move closer to a famous victory.

  9. 84'

    Liverpool are still enjoying much of the posession and you don't get the feeling of Barca nicking that second goal.

  10. 82'

    Aurellio clips a left-foot free-kick from the edge of the box that just nicks the top of the wall and hands Liverpool a corner. From it, Gerrard fires a fierce drive that brings a dramatic dive from Valdez.

  11. 80'

    Some of the swagger is starting to return to Barcelona now but Liverpool are still breaking up moves and hurrying Barca into mistakes.

  12. 79'

    Pennant goes into the book with a high, raking boot on Messi. I would have been tempted to brandish a red for that dangerous tackle.

  13. 78'

    One goal would do it for Barcelona but they would scarcely deserve it. They haven't done much over the two legs but can they find that crucial second goal tonight?

  14. 76'

    Liverpool make a change and bring on Aurelio for Riise. The Liverpool fans get behind their hereos as Barca look to push forward once more.

  15. 75'

    Former Chelsea favourite Eidur Gudjohnsen slips past Reina and taps into an open net for a well-taken goal. It gives Barca a lifeline and the wind is in the Barca sails now.

  16. 74'

    GOAL: LIVERPOOL 0-1 BARCELONA

  17. 71'

    With Barca throwing numbers forward, gaps will open in the Barcelona defence and Gerrard runs into run and rattles off a shot that stings the hands of Valdez.

  18. 70'

    Last throw of the dice for Barcelona? They throw on Eidur Gudjohnsen in place of Thuram and switch to a 3-4-4 formation.

  19. 68'

    Not been too many nervous moments for Liverpool in this match and their stubborn defensive unit doesn't look like handing out any more.

  20. 67'

    The home fans are beginning to believe this tie is done and dusted. They're on their feet and singing again and enjoying watching their side hold the holders at bay.

  21. 65'

    A quarter of the match to play and Liverpool look good for their advantage. Liverpool make a change with Bellamy departing in place of Jermaine Pennant.

  22. 62'

    The game is starting to stretch now with both sides streaming forward. Liverpool still feel they can grab a goal that would surely end the tie. Barca don't look as if they can muster one, let alone two.

  23. 62'

    Kuyt tries an ambitious volley from 30 yards that keeps Valdez guessing. It bounces safely wide but it's another reminder that Liverpool are far the more likely to seize the initiative.

  24. 60'

    A change for Barcelona and it's Guily who comes on for Eto'o. It's a slight surprise with Barca needing two goals, but the visitors need some fresh ideas quickly.

  25. 58'

    Fantastic combination between the Barca front two ends with a tame shot from Messi that Reina pounces on. A fine move but Barca need more.
