Liverpool vs Everton LIVE: Premier League result and final score as Divock Origi goal seals derby win

Follow live reaction as Liverpool kept their Premier League title challenge on track as they overcame a battling and stubborn Everton side at Anfield to leave their Merseyside rivals in the relegation zone.

The Reds had been frustrated by the visitors in a feisty derby until Andy Robertson broke the deadlock midway through the second half, as the full-back met Mohamed Salah’s cross at the back post in front of the Kop.

Substitutes Luis Diaz and Divock Origi then combined to seal the win - with the Belgian striker scoring another derby goal against Everton, in what was an inspired double change from Jurgen Klopp.

The result sees Liverpool close the gap to Manchester City to one point with five matches of the season remaining, while Everton are left in serious danger after Burnley’s win over Wolves earlier in the day saw Frank Lampard’s side drop into the bottom three.

Full-time: That’s it. Liverpool have done the double over Everton. Second half goals from Andy Robertson and Luis Diaz ultimately put Everton’s spirited resolve to bed.

Frank Lampard’s side did show great character in the first 45 minutes and had a couple of half-chances in the second period.

But it was Jurgen Klopp’s team who always looked the dominant outfit and eventually secured the three points.

Liverpool move one point off the top. Everton remain in the relegation zone.

Liverpool 2-0 Everton

18:22 , Dylan Terry

90+2 mins: Three minutes of stoppage time and Alisson has just sent the Liverpool crowd into fits of laughter.

Imitating Jordan Pickford in the first half, the Liverpool keeper dropped to the floor after claiming a cross. He knew what he was doing. The camera instantly cuts to a glum-looking Pickford.

Liverpool 2-0 Everton

18:21 , Dylan Terry

90 mins: Richarlison has kicked out at Henderson while the England man was on the floor. He has been booked for it.

The Brazilian did push his studs into the Liverpool captain’s leg, but a yellow card was probably the correct decision.

Liverpool 2-0 Everton

18:18 , Dylan Terry

89 mins: Dele Alli leaves a foot in on Henderson and goes in Stuart Attwell’s book.

Liverpool 2-0 Everton

18:17 , Dylan Terry

87 mins: Frank Lampard’s men have given it everything but they are going to leave with nothing.

Divock Origi has put this one to bed and Liverpool are hot on the heels of Manchester City once more.

GOAL! Liverpool 2-0 Everton (Origi, 85)

18:14 , Dylan Terry

85 mins: It is 2-0 now though! Origi again against Everton!

How good is Divock Origi’s record against the Toffees?! He has another goal and it’s one he couldn’t miss.

Robertson’s corner reaches Henderson at the back post. He sends it back into the box for Diaz who scissor-kicks it across the penalty area and it bounces kindly for Origi to head home inside the six-yard box.

Game. Set. Match.

Liverpool 1-0 Everton

18:14 , Dylan Terry

84 mins: Nearly 2-0. Salah breaks and finds the onrushing Thiago who tests Pickford with a deflected effort but the England number one is equal to it.

Liverpool 1-0 Everton

18:13 , Dylan Terry

84 mins: A reminder that, as it stands, Liverpool will reduce the gap to Manchester City at the top of the table to one point.

Everton will remain in the relegation zone, two points below Burnley with a game in hand.

Liverpool 1-0 Everton

18:11 , Dylan Terry

82 mins: Salah and Origi link up neatly down the right again. Salah’s cross is a tame one but Holgate somehow slices it behind himself, only for it to fortunately bounce into Pickford’s arms. Could have been comical.

Club captain Jordan Henderson is on as he replaces Diogo Jota.

Liverpool 1-0 Everton

18:10 , Dylan Terry

80 mins: Chance for Everton! Dele Alli gets in behind Alexander-Arnold and puts it across for Iwobi but the boot of Robertson gets there in front of him to hook the ball away from two yards out!

Liverpool have not got the job done just yet.

Liverpool 1-0 Everton

18:08 , Dylan Terry

78 mins: Salomon Rondon is on for Demarai Gray. And he’ll be interested in this.

Everton earn themselves a free-kick on the right-hand side, midway inside the Liverpool half. Mykolenko puts it into a dangerous area and Alisson can only punch into the chest of his own player but fortunately it bounces safely away before Liverpool are awarded a foul.

Liverpool 1-0 Everton

18:07 , Dylan Terry

77 mins: Origi plays a neat one-two with Salah before going down under a challenge from Keane. Not for me, more a shoulder barge than anything else.

Stuart Attwell agrees with me.

Liverpool 1-0 Everton

18:05 , Dylan Terry

75 mins: Dele Alli’s first act is to shove Thiago when the Liverpool man is playing a simple pass on the halfway line. You can almost hear Frank Lampard telling Alli to ‘let him know you’re there’.

Liverpool have kept the ball for a good few minutes now. They know Everton need to open up and try to get something and that will play into Klopp’s side’s hands.

Liverpool 1-0 Everton

18:02 , Dylan Terry

73 mins: Substitution for Everton. Allan is replaced by Dele Alli.

Liverpool 1-0 Everton

18:02 , Dylan Terry

72 mins: Everton have been pinned in their own half ever since the Liverpool goal 10 minutes ago... BUT NOT NOW! SO CLOSE FOR EVERTON!

Finally they break out through Gordon. He finds Iwobi who sends it on to Gray. He takes on the shot from the edge of the box and it whistles past the post! Not sure Alisson had that one covered!

Closest Everton have come, that.

Liverpool 1-0 Everton

17:59 , Dylan Terry

70 mins: For all of Everton’s hard work, they are still set to leave Anfield with nothing to show for it.

Diaz, who has been sensational since coming on, ties Coleman in knots before forcing a corner with a shot off the Everton captain’s leg.

Liverpool 1-0 Everton

17:57 , Dylan Terry

Here is how Andy Robertson broke the deadlock for Liverpool in the Merseyside derby.

Liverpool 1-0 Everton

17:57 , Dylan Terry

67 mins: Origi gets his head to a cross from the right-hand side but it drifts harmlessly wide.

Liverpool 1-0 Everton

17:56 , Dylan Terry

66 mins: Inches away from 2-0!

Pickford flaps at an Alexander-Arnold corner before Matip’s header is cleared off the line by Holgate. Salah then tries his luck from 15 yards out and it’s only just over the top.

Anfield is bouncing.

Liverpool 1-0 Everton

17:55 , Dylan Terry

64 mins: Utterly ridiculous from Diaz! The Liverpool crowd are up and newboy Diaz gives them exactly what they want.

He controls a crossfield ball with the most audacious of touches before driving into the box and forcing a corner with a dangerous low cross.

All Liverpool now.

GOAL! Liverpool 1-0 Everton (Robertson, 62)

17:52 , Dylan Terry

62 mins: THERE IS THE BREAKTHROUGH!

It’s taken more than an hour but finally Liverpool have the goal they have been searching for! Origi links up with Salah and the Egyptian stands up a cross for someone to attack. Robertson accepts the invitation at the back post as he thumps home the header from close range.

Could well be a HUGE moment in both teams’ seasons.

Liverpool 0-0 Everton

17:51 , Dylan Terry

62 mins: Can the introduction of fresh legs give Liverpool the edge they need to secure the three points here? Everton are still defending resolutely and offering more on the break now too.

Liverpool 0-0 Everton

17:50 , Dylan Terry

60 mins: Naby Keita and Sadio Mane make way for Divock Origi and Luis Diaz.

Jurgen Klopp rolling the dice.

Liverpool 0-0 Everton

17:49 , Dylan Terry

60 mins: Alexander-Arnold whips a delightful cross into the box and it’s only half cleared. It falls to Robertson who tries his luck from the edge of the area but Coleman knocks it behind for a corner.

Everton hack the corner clear and here come the Liverpool changes...

Liverpool 0-0 Everton

17:48 , Dylan Terry

58 mins: Everton are taking more risks now and that could ultimately play into Liverpool’s hands as there will be more space in behind.

Gordon breaks yet again for Everton though! He knocks the ball brilliantly past Keita and Alexander-Arnold cynically takes him out. The most stonewall yellow card you will ever see.

Liverpool are not comfortable in this game. Anthony Gordon is becoming the star of this match.

The resulting free-kick is glanced on by Iwobi but no-one is there to meet it.

Liverpool 0-0 Everton

17:46 , Dylan Terry

56 mins: Frank Lampard was fuming about that penalty call. You feel if it had been given then it would not have been overturned.

Meanwhile, Gordon gets in behind again! He spins Matip and tries to pick out the far corner with a low shot but poorly drags it well wide.

Everton need to take chances like those.

Liverpool 0-0 Everton

17:44 , Dylan Terry

54 mins: Penalty shout for Everton. Iwobi feeds Gordon on the break and Matip comes across with his arm to bring down the Everton man. The referee is unmoved.

There is a case for that being a penalty, but I’m not sure there was quite enough in it. Borderline.

Liverpool 0-0 Everton

17:43 , Dylan Terry

53 mins: Lovely link-up play from Liverpool as Matip, Keita and Jota all exchange neat passes on the edge of the box before it fails to fall for Mane.

The hosts need more of that if they are going to pull Everton out of position and create the openings.

Liverpool 0-0 Everton

17:41 , Dylan Terry

52 mins: Liverpool pile forward and leave themselves exposed whe Doucoure feeds Iwobi down the left. It’s two-on-two but Iwobi can’t find a way past Matip who stands him up superbly.

Already more space for both sides since the break.

Liverpool 0-0 Everton

17:39 , Dylan Terry

50 mins: Everton have been pinned in at the start of this second half and the Liverpool fans are sensing that this could be the moment to break the visitors’ resolve.

Salah chops a pass outside to Alexander-Arnold but his cross is into the arms of Pickford - who proceeds to kill another 15 or 20 seconds.

Liverpool 0-0 Everton

17:37 , Dylan Terry

48 mins: Robertson swings the corner in and Holgate rises to head clear. It’s only as far as Keita though as the Liverpool midfielder tries his luck on the half volley but it swings wide of the post.

Liverpool 0-0 Everton

17:36 , Dylan Terry

47 mins: Everton straight back into their low block as Liverpool probe for an opener. It’s a case of as you were for both teams, with neither manager making any personnel changes either.

Robertson forces a corner off Gray and the Kop are in full voice.

Liverpool 0-0 Everton

17:35 , Dylan Terry

46 mins: Here we go then. Liverpool have 45 minutes to find a breakthrough. Everton have 45 minutes to hold on. Or could they even find a winner themselves?

Naby Keita gets us back underway.

HT: Liverpool 0-0 Everton

17:34 , Dylan Terry

Even Jamie Carragher is riled. Stay professional now, Jamie.

HT: Liverpool 0-0 Everton

17:32 , Dylan Terry

Moments away from the second half at Anfield. Would be a huge blow to Liverpool’s title ambitions if they can’t find a way through in this next 45 minutes.

Equally, it would be a major boost for Everton who would be unbeaten in three games.

HT: Liverpool 0-0 Everton

17:30 , Dylan Terry

It really cannot be overstated the level of gamesmanship at play from Everton in that first half. Hitting the deck, ‘losing’ the ball, diving, I could go on.

They are doing whatever they can to stay in the Premier League and I can’t work out if I loathe or respect it.

HT: Liverpool 0-0 Everton

17:26 , Dylan Terry

To illustrate just how well Everton have restricted Liverpool in that first half, the Toffees actually had a higher expected goals than the home side.

Impressive stuff.

HT: Liverpool 0-0 Everton

17:21 , Dylan Terry

Half-time: That’s the break and rather surprisingly it is goalless between Liverpool and Everton. Frank Lampard’s men have done well to negate Liverpool with their solid defensive structure.

Sadio Mane and Mo Salah have had half chances but on the whole it has been a very impressive performance from the visitors. Jurgen Klopp has much to think about and will need to instruct his players effectively if they are to claim all three points in this one.

They are in a fight.

Liverpool 0-0 Everton

17:19 , Dylan Terry

45+1 mins: Pickford gathers a simple cross and then hits the deck to waste another few seconds. He smiles and gives a wink to the bench. The Liverpool fans are not entertained.

That should be that for the first half.

Liverpool 0-0 Everton

17:18 , Dylan Terry

45 mins: Mane was booked for pushing Holgate in the face as both sets of players came to blows.

There will be two minutes of added time.

Liverpool 0-0 Everton

17:17 , Dylan Terry

45 mins: Richarlison is down again but Liverpool are correctly not kicking the ball out of play.

OH, HELLO! Absolute chaos as the Everton players are calling for the ball to be kicked out. Doucoure ends up hacking down Fabinho as the Liverpool team all sprint over to confront him for a nasty challenge.

There is a lot of pushing and shoving and Doucoure ends up with a yellow card for the initial tackle. Mane has also been booked following the melee that ensued.

Liverpool 0-0 Everton

17:14 , Dylan Terry

44 mins: Salah plays a one-two with Keita before trying to whip one into the far corner but it’s a good few yards wide.

Very quiet half for Liverpool. They have failed to put those electric moves together that they are so well-known for.

Liverpool 0-0 Everton

17:12 , Dylan Terry

42 mins: Richarlison has gone down after heading the ball clear. That’s a new one. Injured from heading the ball. The dark arts at work from Franky Lamps.

Jurgen Klopp has a wry smile on his face. He knows what his Merseyside rivals are trying to do.

Liverpool 0-0 Everton

17:10 , Dylan Terry

40 mins: Salah lofts a ball to Mane at the back post. He tries to nod down for Jota in the middle but Holgate is there to clear away the danger once more.

Keita then finds Jota in a dangerous position inside the penalty area but Mykolenko nicks it away from his feet and out for another Liverpool corner.

Alexander-Arnold delivers and hits Richarlison at the front post.

Liverpool 0-0 Everton

17:08 , Dylan Terry

38 mins: Jordan Pickford is being booed every time the ball goes out for a goal kick. In fairness, he is averaging about a minute per kick.

There is definitely a growing sense of frustration in the stadium, though. Liverpool’s attacking players have been kept worryingly quiet in this opening 38 minutes at Anfield.

Liverpool 0-0 Everton

17:06 , Dylan Terry

36 mins: Liverpool struggling to locate the gaps in this 11-man Everton defence. As soon as they try to string some passes together in the final third there is a blue shirt there to close them down.

Fabinho tries to clip one over the top for Salah but Mykolenko heads clear.

Liverpool 0-0 Everton

17:04 , Dylan Terry

34 mins: Chance for Everton! Thiago is caught in possession and Richarlison swiftly sends the ball into Doucoure who has space to shoot. The midfielder takes it on but, under pressure from Matip, drags his effort wide of the far post.

A warning for Klopp’s men.

Liverpool 0-0 Everton

17:02 , Dylan Terry

32 mins: This time Thiago picks Salah out with a quite delicious crossfield pass. He cuts inside before Allan puts it behind for another corner.

Everton scramble the set-piece clear again. Liverpool moving into second gear.

Robertson pulls a ball back for Jota but his effort is off target. The home side still yet to create a real gilt-edged opportunity.

Liverpool 0-0 Everton

16:59 , Dylan Terry

30 mins: Alexander-Arnold sends the corner in but Keane thumps a header clear. Thiago then tries to pick the Liverpool right-back out with a crossfield pass but he was in an offside position.

Everton defending well as we head into the final 15 minutes of the first half.

Liverpool 0-0 Everton

16:58 , Dylan Terry

28 mins: Jurgen Klopp will want to see more from Jota and Salah in the final third. They are yet to really get into the game.

The temperature is heading up at Anfield though. Coleman and Jota have just squared up to one another after Coleman had hold of Jota’s shirt. Few handbags but nothing more than that.

The resulting Liverpool free-kick is whipped in dangerously by Robertson and Holgate flicks it behind for a corner.

Liverpool 0-0 Everton

16:55 , Dylan Terry

26 mins: Oh, hello! We have our first piece of drama here today.

Pickford kicks an 80-yard pass straight to the feet of Gordon. He cuts inside before going down inside the area under a ‘challenge’ from Keita.

Referee Craig Pawson deems it to be a dive and he books Gordon. Replay shows it was indeed a dive.

Liverpool 0-0 Everton

16:53 , Dylan Terry

24 mins: Richarlison receives the ball just inside the Liverpool box and manages to force a corner despite being surrounded by three red shirts.

Gordon swings it in and Mane heads it clear of danger.

Liverpool 0-0 Everton

16:52 , Dylan Terry

22 mins: First sight of goal for Liverpool falls to Sadio Mane.

Thiago fizzes the ball into the feet of Mane who is occupying a central position on the edge of the box. The Senegalese forward takes a touch and spins towards goal before rifling a well-hit strike over the bar.

Liverpool 0-0 Everton

16:50 , Dylan Terry

20 mins: Thiago looks for Salah at the back post but Pickford is determined to come out and meet the ball and he does well to claim it in front of the Egyptian.

Everton try to create a crossing opportunity of their own but Gordon’s delivery is well overhit and Liverpool can pile forward once more.

Not much in the way of clear-cut chances for either side as yet.

Liverpool 0-0 Everton

16:48 , Dylan Terry

18 mins: Alexander-Arnold forces Gordon to the ground for the second time in less than 60 seconds and this time the decision goes Everton’s way inside their own half.

Keane plays a long diagonal from the free-kick but it drifts aimlessly out of play.

Liverpool 0-0 Everton

16:46 , Dylan Terry

16 mins: Richarlison finds Gray galloping through the middle. He cuts inside one, two, three challenges before unleashing a venomous shot which is blocked by Fabinho.

Liverpool lacking that zip in their play in the early stages here. Guilty of giving it away on the edge of the Everton box.

Gordon storms down the left and beats Alexander-Arnold for pace before going down. Looked like a shove from the Liverpool man but no free-kick is given. Harsh.

Liverpool 0-0 Everton

16:44 , Dylan Terry

14 mins: Salah shows his twinkling feet to burst beyond Iwobi but then fouls Mykolenko as he tries to glide past him on the byline. Another soft free-kick but there was a little contact.

Matip ushers Richarlison off the ball and allows it to run out for a Liverpool goal kick. More physical than entertaining so far.

Liverpool 0-0 Everton

16:41 , Dylan Terry

12 mins: Everton have everyone behind the ball when Liverpool are in possession - understandably so.

The hosts are yet to really get going in the final third, even if they are dominating the ball. They have made 98 passes to Everton’s seven (SEVEN) so far.

Liverpool 0-0 Everton

16:39 , Dylan Terry

10 mins: Richarlison goes down after a flick in the face from Fabinho while the Liverpool man was running with the ball. Not much in that, massive overreaction from the Everton man.

Salah interchanges smartly with Fabinho before Holgate gets across to slam away from danger inside his own box.

Liverpool 0-0 Everton

16:37 , Dylan Terry

8 mins: Gray tries to find Richarlison through the middle but the Brazilian can’t reach it on the stretch and Alisson can safely gather.

Alexander-Arnold then plays a sloppy pass straight to Gordon but gets away with it as the Everton man fails to keep it in play with a poor touch.

Liverpool 0-0 Everton

16:35 , Dylan Terry

6 mins: Demarai Gray goes for goal but it’s tamely into the Liverpool wall before Jota wins the hosts a throw-in. A waste.

Liverpool 0-0 Everton

16:35 , Dylan Terry

5 mins: Everton finally have possession of the ball and Anthony Gordon glides past Thiago before being brought down. Free-kick in a central position 25 yards from goal. Early chance for the Toffees to test Alisson.

What can they conjure up here?

Liverpool 0-0 Everton

16:33 , Dylan Terry

4 mins: Salah bursts down the right and appears to beat Anthony Gordon fairly when cutting inside, but the Everton man hits the deck and wins a cheap free-kick.

The ball is straight back with the hosts, though. Liverpool have barely given their visiting rivals a kick in the opening four minutes.

Liverpool 0-0 Everton

16:31 , Dylan Terry

2 mins: Anfield is absolutely rocking on Sunday afternoon/evening here. What an atmosphere this stadium creates on the biggest occasions.

Liverpool immediately on the ball as Everton drop into their defensive structure. That will almost certainly be the pattern for much of this match.

Kick-off: Liverpool 0-0 Everton

But it is equally as big for Everton and Frank Lampard. They start the afternoon in the bottom three for the first time this season.

An unnerving situation ahead of a match against their in-form local rivals at Anfield.

Jurgen Klopp knows his side have to win today. They start the match four points adrift of Manchester City.

Huge anticipation for this one. Excitement for the neutrals. Expectation for Liverpool fans. Dread for Everton supporters?

Rudiger to leave Chelsea, Tuchel confirms

16:20 , Dylan Terry

Away from the Merseyside derby, Thomas Tuchel has just confirmed that Antonio Rudiger will leave Stamford Bridge at the end of the season.

He told Sky Sports: “Toni, the media is on it. The situation is that he wants to leave the club. He informed me of this is in a private talk.

“We gave everything - me and the club - but we could not fight anymore because of the actions. Without the sanctions we would at least be able to carry on fighting, but out hands are tied. We don’t take it personally. It is his decision.

“He is a key figure and will stay that way until the end of the season. But it is disappointing. We will miss him a lot. He gives courage in the dressing room. The kind everyone is afraid of, but the kind to play 50-55 games at an outstanding level. He is a top defender in the last one and a half years for me. We then need to find another solution.”

Liverpool vs Everton

16:17 , Dylan Terry

Sorry Everton fans, but this is a pretty damning statistic. Do any Toffees fans actually believe their side can win here today?

Well, well, well. Suddenly this game is absolutely seismic for both Merseyside clubs.

Liverpool can reduce the gap to Manchester City back to just one point with a victory. Everton now need a win to move out of the bottom three after Burnley’s win over Wolves.

I’m no historian, but this has to be one of the biggest ever Merseyside derbies. HUGE.

FT: Chelsea 1-0 West Ham

15:55 , Dylan Terry

Full-time: Chelsea got there in the end. After a torrid first half of football, Chelsea eventually got going late on and found the winner through substitute Christian Pulisic.

Jorginho’s blushes were spared after he rolled a woeful penalty into the arms of Lukasz Fabianski following Craig Dawson’s foul on Romelu Lukaku. Dawson was also shown a red card for denying an obvious goalscoring opportunity.

Yet despite Jorginho’s spot kick miss, Pulisic finally broke a depleted West Ham side down in the final moments of the match to hand Chelsea their first home win in four games.

Relief for Chelsea and Jorginho in particular.

What a bizarre end to a hapless match.

MISSED PENALTY! Chelsea 0-0 West Ham

15:46 , Dylan Terry

87 mins: OH MY WORD!

RED CARD! Chelsea 0-0 West Ham

15:46 , Dylan Terry

85 mins: As expected, Craig Dawson is sent off. What a real, real shame. The centre-back who has been sensational all afternoon has now been dismissed.

And with Zouma, Diop and Ogbonna already on the sidelines, this is another selection headache for Moyes at the heart of his defence - in the Premier League.

Chelsea 0-0 West Ham

15:45 , Dylan Terry

85 mins: VAR also looking at whether it was a clear goalscoring opportunity. It was. That means Dawson’s yellow card is going to be upgraded to a red here. Almost certainly.

PENALTY! Chelsea 0-0 West Ham

15:44 , Dylan Terry

85 mins: PENALTY TO CHELSEA!

Thiago Silva flicks on a long ball and Lukaku is through on goal before Dawson pulls him down. Nailed on penalty.

Shame for Dawson. He has probably been the best player on the pitch.

Chelsea 0-0 West Ham

15:43 , Dylan Terry

84 mins: Azpilicueta sends a cross in from the right and Lukaku gets there ahead of Dawson before heading against the West Ham defender’s chest and out for a corner.

The set-piece comes to nothing, though. It’s all the way back to Mendy.

Chelsea 0-0 West Ham

15:41 , Dylan Terry

82 mins: Alonso goes into the book for a reckless elbow into the head of Soucek while challenging for a high ball. Chelsea clearly getting frustrated now.

Chelsea 0-0 West Ham

15:39 , Dylan Terry

80 mins: You get the feeling there is going to be at least one more big chance in this game. The momentum now seems to be with Chelsea but West Ham have the threat of the break through a fresh Jarrod Bowen.

Ziyech tries to find Lukaku with a cross into the middle but gets it horribly wrong and West Ham have themselves a goal kick.

Chelsea 0-0 West Ham

15:38 , Dylan Terry

79 mins: My mistake, Havertz went off rather than Mount. I know that because Mount just fired a long-range strike over the top.

Meanwhile, West Ham make another change. Manuel Lanzini comes on for Said Benrahma.

Chelsea 0-0 West Ham

15:35 , Dylan Terry

77 mins: Werner, Loftus-Cheek and Havertz off for Lukaku, Ziyech and Pulisic. Major shake-up with 13 minutes remaining.

Chelsea 0-0 West Ham

15:34 , Dylan Terry

76 mins: Havertz escapes down the right but Johnson gets there first to turn his cross away.

Then Kante receives the ball inside the box but his shot is blocked.

Here come three changes for Chelsea...

Chelsea 0-0 West Ham

15:33 , Dylan Terry

75 mins: Another chance for Chelsea!

Mount’s initial corner comes back out to him. He lays it off to Alonso who sends the cross into the box and it falls kindly for Werner who flicks it towards the top corner but Fabianski makes the save.

Chelsea 0-0 West Ham

15:32 , Dylan Terry

73 mins: Jarrod Bowen is on for Andriy Yarmolenko. David Moyes not settling for a point here today.

Chelsea 0-0 West Ham

15:31 , Dylan Terry

72 mins: Chelsea finally beginning to open West Ham up!

Mount has the time to send a cross into the middle from the left-hand side and somehow it evades Werner, Havertz and Loftus-Cheek!

Not sure how that managed to miss three Chelsea players and four West Ham defenders.

Chelsea 0-0 West Ham

70 mins: MASSIVE CHANCES FOR BOTH!

Yarmolenko storms down the right, cuts inside and rifles an effort off the body of Mendy. He has a second bite at it but Mendy is equal to it once more.

Then Chelsea break and Mount’s fierce effort is superbly blocked AGAIN by Dawson before Werner’s close range follow-up is fired into the side-netting.

68 mins: Fornals gallops forward and tries to slide a pass into Yarmolenko but he puts way too much on the through ball and Mendy can gather.

Thiago Silva then storms through the middle of the pitch before unleashing a shot which cannons off Werner in an offside position.

That. Sort. Of. Game.
