Peter Czvitkovics has a go from a free-kick but the attempt from range is disappointing

Dombi is allowed to turn and shoot at Reina. The Spanish keeper saves, but an offside flag is raised

Aurelio's delivery finds Carragher at the far post and his header across goal falls to nobody. It could have been a card and copy of the opener if a red shirt had gambled at the back post

Liverpool corner

A cross finds Aurelio who does well to direct a header in on goal. But the Brazilian is 18 yards out and it is a comfortable save

Immediately from the goal-kick, Insua gets the ball and makes his way forward. He sends a low cross towards N'Gog but it is cleared

Aurelio is allowed to take this one but it is far too heavy and goes out of play

Kuyt is brought down and the Reds get another free-kick in a similar position

Rudolf goes on a run and is brought down on the edge of the area. The referee lets play go on

Play slows down and the Debrecen back four can rest after a relentless 20 minutes which they have survived

Agger impressively dances his way through a number of Debrecen players to the edge of the area. He pulls it back for Gerrard, who slices his shot over the bar

Kuyt breaks and he is joined by three red shirts. His first cross finds nobody, but with a second chance the Dutchman is wasteful and fires behind

Kuyt crosses and Lucas finds himself on the end of the ball. And much like in stoppage time against Manchester City on Saturday, the Brazilian glances his header wide

Wave after wave of Liverpool attacks are coming but the second goal still eludes the Reds. Johnson squares for Gerrard this time. The captain's left-foot shot is saved well by Poleksic low to his right

Johnson dances to the byline and dinks a ball across the area towards Carragher. It is cut out once more

Gerrard is released into the channel by Lucas but the defence gets back well to block his shot for a corner

Aurelio's swinging free-kick from deep wins a corner. It is taken quickly and a decent-loooking ball with pace evades everyone, including Kuyt who was six inches too small to flick it in

The ball falls to Johnson who drives the ball across the area. Debrecen fail to clear and Carragher, of all people, comes close to tapping in. Once again, the home side scramble clear

Gerrard, 25 yards out, turns his marker and drives a low shot which is deflected for a corner

Debrecen fail to clear the corner sufficiently but little is mustered around the box to threaten Poleksic's goal

Gerrard finds himself on the right wing and crosses. It is deflected behind

As has been the course of the evening, Liverpool are content to keep hold of the ball in midfield and are resisting any direct balls to N'Gog

The second period seems destined to remain a one-sided affair, but the longer the match goes on at 1-0, the more confident the minnows of the tie will become

Insua charges forward with intent once more and lets fly with his left foot. He is off balance, though. Goal-kick

It is taken short and worked around the area. A cross from the opposite flank attracts the force of Gerrard, but his header trickles out of play

Mascherano goes exploring down the left and wins a corner

Gerrard's kick meets a couple of heads but flies across the six-yard area

N'Gog, who has toiled and impressed, runs at the Debrecen defence. The ball is sweeped away from him to produce a corner

A slightly scuffed cross finds Rudolf unmarked just outside the area. The striker hits it on the turn and the ball is crucially blocked

The ensuing corner is cleared

Patient build-up from the Reds, but Kuyt takes the iniative and plays the ball into Gerrard who tips it on to N'Gog, who swings his right boot at the ball from 20 yards. Poleksic saves brilliantly at his left post to keep his side in the game, just

Insua darts down the left wing and plays a one-two with Aurelio. He shows a burst of pace to get to the byline but stumbles at the crucial moment

Another cross from the right is decent but Liverpool are able to clear this time. It's encouraging for the Hungarians

News emerges that Fiorentina have gone a goal up at home to Lyon

Gerrard's delivery from the far side is cleared

Kuyt runs free and passes across to N'Gog, who controls well. He shoots at Poleksic, who can only parry, but the ball is shifted away for a corner

Debrecen are enjoying a much-needed of possession. They are threatening little, but for the first time in 25 minutes, they are becoming a part of this match

It's possibly been the most one-sided 20 minutes of football in Liverpool's season. The Reds will be keen to wrap this game up inside the opening half

Johnson concedes a free-kick to present Debrecen with some respite. But the ball is wasted and Liverpool will be allowed to build from the back once again

More delightful play from the Reds who spread the ball with ease. A cross from Kuyt eventually finds Emiliano Insua, but the left-back cannot get a shot away and the attack dizzles out

Liverpool win a free-kick which is taken short. Aurelio cuts inside and unleashes a vicious shot which is heading wide, but flies through the legs of Dirk Kuyt who misses a chance to make it two

There's plenty of high-tempo possession from Liverpool which the hosts are struggling to deal with. It appears just a matter of time before the lead is doubled

Mascherano has a go from distance but the shot is off-target and poorly struck

It's been an extremely confident start from Liverpool, something which has been missing from their play all-too often in recent weeks

Aurelio delivers another dangerous-looking ball from a free-kick midway through the Debrecen half and the home side struggle to clear before goalkeeper Vukasin Poleksic pounces

More attacking from the Reds and Johnson wins a corner. It is taken short and a Gerrard cross is deflected behind for another

A lofted ball over the top from Lucas Leiva searches for Gerrard but it is just too deep for the skipper to latch onto
