Liverpool vs Chelsea

1. 93'

   A deserved win for Chelsea who looked the more dangerous over the 90 minutes, despite some good spells from Liverpool. And what a game for Hasselbaink, but will his winner be enough to gain him a starting place?

    Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink scores!!

13. 86'

    The last five minutes of the game, and Owen is ruled offside

    Liverpool have pushed Chelsea back deep in their own half, but they escape and Gronkjaer whips in another cross, but again it is too long

21. 80'

    Chelsea rush forward to get a winner as time ebbs away - the Kop finds its voice again!

23. 78'

    Anfield holds its breath - Owen steps up and makes no mistake, lashing it high into the middle of the net!!

24. 76'

25. 76'

    Owen steps up and puts it wide of Cudicini's right hand post - bad miss!!!
