Liverpool are going in search of another and Aurelio wins his side a corner, which is taken short by Alonso and held in the corner by Riise

The fourth official indicates three minutes of added time.

Aurelio plays an intricate one-two with Kuyt and flashes the ball across the face of goal, forcing a fine save out of Lehmann. The keeper does not get the credit for the save however, as the linesman flags for a goal-kick!

Arsenal will be happy to finish this match and put it behind them fairly rapidly, as they have a big match against West Ham at home next Saturday

Riise makes an immediate impact and strikes a trademark shot from distance but fails to beat Lehmann.

Liverpool are being worked a little harder than they probably expected in the closing stages of the game, and look a little uneasy. Ljungberg wins his side a corner, but it comes to nothing.

Arsenal work the ball well and look a lot more comfortable now. Toure ends the move with an ambitious effort from 25-yards which he drills wide of the target.

Ljungberg chips the ball over the head of Agger and Rosicky tries to get on the end of it, but Agger tracks back well and ushers the midfielder away from goal

Carragher's clearance only goes as far as Eboue, 25-yards from goal and he strikes the ball on the volley but does not trouble Reina

Adebayor has looked like Arsenal's biggest threat today. He gets a head to a cross and Reina pulls off a magnificent fingertip save to tip the ball onto the post

Fabregas takes two corners in quick succession, both of which are good deliveries but his team-mates fail to capitalise.

Gallas delays the pass and loses out to Crouch who nicks the ball and tries to slide a pass through to Kuyt, but Gallas recovers and gets a good challenge in

Arsenal regain possession and go on a break. Adebayor performs a wonderful turn and strike on the edge of the box and hits the post with a low shot.

Gonzalez crosses for Gerrard who strikes the ball goal-wards and forces a good save out of Reina.

Arsenal have started the second-half a little less lethargically, but play still seems to be breaking down for them when they reach the final third.

Mark Gonzalez runs at Eboue and puts a low cross into the path of Crouch, but he cannot control the ball and Lehmann gratefully collects it

Javier Mascherano has been everywhere this first half, winning challenge after challenge and again prevents Arsenal from catching Liverpool on the break with a good interception.

Adebayor got a nudge from Carragher during the aerial battle for Clichy's cross, and play has stopped for the time being while he receives treatment.

Gael Clichy gets forward again and puts a cross into the six-yard box, but Adebayor misses the header and Liverpool clear the danger

Arsenal do not look like getting back into the game at the moment and their football is a little sloppy. Arsene Wenger may be forced to make changes to his side at half-time

Adebayor pulls out to the left flank and receives the ball before running at the Liverpool defence. He slides the ball through to Baptista who slices his shot wide

Liverpool are a constant threat at the moment and look much more the dangerous side going forward

Liverpool come forward again with Crouch, who bursts into the box before striking a speculative effort goal-wards, but sends the ball wide.

Gerrard takes the corner and finds Carragher wide open at the far post, but he does not make the most of the opportunity and misses the target.

Gonzalez gets to the byline and crosses for Crouch who looks set to bag his second goal, but William Gallas puts in a vital interception, almost scoring an own goal in the process

Pennant takes the resulting free-kick and almost picks out Gerrard with a whippped cross. Arsenal fail to clear their lines, and the ball falls to Crouch who performs an acrobatic bicycle kick to get the shot away, but does not beat Jens Lehmann

Gael Clichy crosses from deep but sends the ball straight into the arms of Jose Reina

Fabregas takes an Arsenal corner and picks out Emmanuel Adebayor whose header is inches away from levelling the scoreline

Arsenal are the comeback kings of the Premiership, bagging 18 points after coming back from a losing position, and so they should not be phased by the scoreline

Julio Baptista, who netted four goals at Anfield earlier on in the season, tries to break through the Liverpool defence after a good pass from Cecs Fabregas, but Jamie Carragher stops him in his tracks

Liverpool aren't giving the visitors any time on the ball and also look happy to pass the ball around patiently

Arsenal are shellchocked after the dramatic start to the game, and Liverpool go in search for another as Gonzalez crosses for Crouch again, but this time Kolo Toure is first to the ball

Fabio Aurelio slides the ball into the path of Mark Gonzalez, but Emmanuel Eboue stands his ground and prevents the winger reaching the ball

Liverpool win the ball early and Steven Gerrard tries his luck from range, but makes a mess of the shot and sends it high over the crossbar
