As we move into stoppage time Liverpool continue to control the possession and the atmosphere inside Anfield is one similar to a carnival now.

Another good move from Liverpool as Voronin links up with Gerrard and the Liverpool skipper shoots from close range but Jensen makes a good save to deny the Englishman.

Phillip Degen makes good ground up the right hand side and is found by Voronin. Degen crosses well towards the back post but N'Gog can't get his head to it and the danger passes.

David Nugent does well to pick up possession deep in the Liverpool half and he beats two men but he was isolated and eventually loses possession.

Steven Gerrard wanders through the defence and picks a path into the box and slides the ball past Jensen but it clips the outside of the post and goes for a goal-kick.

Steven Gerrard takes a free-kick from just outside the box and he bends it up and over the wall, Jensen parries it back into the danger zone and Benayoun turns it in but he is denied his hat-trick by the assistant's flag.

A clever ball in behind the Burnley defence looked to have set Torres through on goal but Andre Bikey shows his pace to get back at the striker and make the tackle.

The tempo of the game has certainly slowed since the third goal as Liverpool look to conserve energy with their Champions League game midweek in mind.

Wade Elliott shows a sign of danger as he skips away from his marker and with time and space he snatches at his shot and sends it high into the Anfield stands.

Excellent defending from Tyrone Mears as he shows great pace to come across and make an excellent challenge on Torres as the Spaniard looked to get in behind the Burnley back line.

Lucas will deliver this free-kick from the right hand side - He plays the ball towards the front post but the Burnley defence deal with it well and get the ball clear.

Burnley struggle to clear a cross from Torres and the ball breaks to Benayoun who clips it back into the box towards Kuyt who tries to guide the header towards the corner but sends it wide.

Free-kick to Liverpool won by Gerrard after a foul from Carlisle just outside the box. Lee Mason marches out the ten yards. Gerrard shifts it to Riera who strikes it but it the wall does it's job.

The first corner of the second half is one by Torres and Gerrard will deliver from the right - The outswinging delivery is headed away by Alexander for a throw-in.

Owen Coyle seems to have stuck with the same system at the start of this second half in the hope of pinching a goal to get back into this one. Liverpool will look to dictate possession and add to their lead.

Paterson tries his luck from long range and in truth he strikes it too cleanly and rifles it straight at the middle of the goal but Reina turns it behind for a corner.

Steven Gerrard forces a fabulous save from Jensen as he arrows a shot towards the top corner with his right-foot but the Burnley keeper makes the save.

Certainly suspicions of offside there as Liverpool double their lead but many will say that Jensen perhaps could have done more to hold on to the shot from Benayoun.

Burnley starting to enjoy a bit of possession and they force a corner on the left hand side - Blake swings it in towards Reina who makes an unconvincing clearance with his fist.

Liverpool are completely dominant! Riera comes in off the left hand side and fires the ball towards the far post and it flashes just past the head of Benayoun and beats the far post.

Graham Alexander slips the ball forward into Paterson who turns and makes a good run into the area and shoots left-footed but Reina makes a good save to his left.

Another effort from range for the home side as Lucas tries his luck and forces Jensen to turn it wide. Corner to be taken by Gerrard - The ball is swung into the box but Alexander gets up well to head the ball clear.

Great interplay again between Riera and Benayoun as the Spaniard plays a neat back-heel into the path of Benayoun who strikes it from the edge of the area but it flies into the hands of Jensen.

It could have been two! Insua takes the ball down the left hand side and crosses the ball towards Benayoun again who forces a great save from Jensen but it breaks for Kuyt. Kuyt shoots but Jensen is there to make another save to deny the Dutchman.

Emiliano Insua finds space on the left hand side and clips the ball into the danger zone and finds Benayoun but the header goes a fraction wide of the near post.

Liverpool take possession as the ball breaks to Insua and he plays the ball into the middle and Kuyt picks it up moving in off the right flank. The Dutchman looks to test Jensen but drives the ball over the top from the edge of the box.

Martin Skrtel picks the ball up on the half-way line and with very little on he advances forward and tries his luck from a long way out but he fires it well wide.

First glimpse of Fernando Torres and he is allowed time to turn and shoot from 35 yards but it curls beyond the far post and Jensen had it covered but that certainly excited the home crowd.

Dirk Kuyt links up with Johnson and crosses the ball into the centre but Clarke Carlisle shows great composure as he chests the ball down to his keeper on the edge of his six yard box. Calm defending from the centre-half.

It appears that Owen Coyle has asked Wade Elliott to operate from the centre of midfield with Blake on the left and Paterson on the right hand side.

Burnley win their first corner after a mistake from Martin Skrtel who looks a little nervy in the opening stages. Blake swings it in but its headed away and the danger is cleared.

First effort from Liverpool as a long ball finds Riera who takes on Mears and forces a block, the ball falls for Dirk Kuyt just outside the box and he strikes it goalward but Jensen makes a good save.

Steven Fletcher has gone down and looks in some discomfort after an inocuous challenge with Insua. Riera put the ball into touch to allow the Scottish international to be treated but he seems to have recovered.

Burnely start brightly as Carlisle dispossesses Torres and finds McCann who feeds Martin Paterson but he pulled his effort off target from the edge of the box.
