Play by play

94'
It was nearly five! Benayoun teed up Gerrard who blazed over from 18 yards! There's the final whistle. Liverpool win emphatically and go through in second place, behind FC Porto.
93'
Liverpool are about to become the first English club to win at Marseilles.
92'
Goal! Ryan Babel outpaces Faty again, touches it round Mandanda and slides it into an empty net. Get this, Marseilles 0-4 Liverpool!
91'
Two minutes left.
91'
The stadium is half empty now and the strains of 'You'll Never Walk Alone' can faintly be heard...
90'
Fabio Aurelio gets a yellow for a nasty tackle on Valbuena.
89'
Ooh, Babel is rapid, he overtakes Rodriuguez despite the centre half having a ten yard headstart. Sadly, he couldn't pick out Lucas however.
88'
Kuyt has been replaced by Lucas but no sign of Gerrard getting a rest. That is Steven Gerrard, Liverpool's top scorer in Europe by the way, with 23 goals.
87'
Cisse claims a handball when it was his own miscontrol that meant the chance went begging. ome on Djibril.
85'
Mascherano has just fired a wonderful 90-yard ball for Kuyt. He seems fine now.
84'
Oh look, Mascherano is back on. Funny that, he looked VERY badly injured a minute ago.
83'
Why is Gerrard still on the pitch? Anyone?
82'
Hyypia looks very relaxed about the fact he has just raked his studs down his team-mates shin.
81'
It's ok, he's on a stretcher now.
80'
Mascherano has gone down heavily and is writhing extravagantly. Looks like it was Hyypia who crocked him, trying to block Niang's earlier shot.
79'
The only people disappointed by the removal of Torres are the legions of his female fans...
78'
Now, a chance for Marseilles, 30 yards out. It is Niang who hits it this time but just like Nasri before him, and countless others before Nasri, the ball flies a million miles wide.
77'
As expected, Torres is the one coming off and not only does he get an ovation from the away fans, but Marseilles' supporters also clap him off. Football's the winner.
76'
Liverpool are trying to be too cute now, which doesn't suit Kuyt, who gives it away.
75'
Looks like Ryan Babel is about to come on, surely for Torres.
74'
There really is very little happening you know, I'm not just out the back having a crafty fag.
73'
Nasri tries a punt from 40 yards but neglected to get his head over it and it sails harmlessly over the bar.
72'
Riise does well to waste a few more seconds with some quality diving. The ref blew straight away.
71'
Poor free-kick from Aurelio and Faty clears.
70'
Torres takes more punishment - from Rodriguez this time. Come on Rafa, get the pretty boy off!
