POST!!
We heard that one all the way over here. Huddersfield have responded well to that Salah goal as Hogg cracks a shot from 25 yards after some good link-up play between Mooy, Pritchard and Durm.
The effort however comes back off the woodwork.

Adam Lallana gets a yellow card for a late challenge. At the other end, Gomez concedes a free while battling for possession with Depoitre.
Free-kick given in a very interesting position.

SO CLOSE!!
Super strike from Billing. He curled that free-kick almost to perfection but just falls short of the target. The hosts are still very much in this contest as we head towards the 40-minute mark.

Billing comes close again. Depoitre sends him through into the Liverpool area but Billing’s first touch lets him down and the ball bounces away from him before he can line up a shot.

Huddersfield call for a penalty!!
Ball bounces off Milner’s arm but the referee is not interested in the Huddersfield protests.
Pritchard thought he had scored the equaliser moments later after sneaking in behind the cover and tipping the ball into the net past Alisson but the linesman’s flag was up.
Liverpool might be leading this tie but Huddersfield will feel they should be level after all the chances they have created.
Billing has been hugely influential as has Depoitre up front. But that Salah goal is what matters on the scoreboard.
There were two penalty calls in the first half but both would probably have been harsh for the referee to give. What do you think? Let us know below.

Henderson has a tight hamstring we’re hearing which is why he has been withdrawn.
Liverpool look a little bit brittle in defence. A long ball in causes some confusion between Alisson and van Dijk but the goalkeeper manages to kick it out.

SAVE!!
Huddersfield launch a good counter-attack and move the ball nicely up the pitch before it finds Depoitre in the box.
He angles his header towards the bottom corner of the net but Alisson does well to catch the ball cleanly.

Salah whips in a corner but Huddersfield keep their lines and manage to head the ball away from danger. There’s still an equaliser in the host side if they can keep working the ball with composure.

CLOSE!!
Salah came within inches of grabbing his second goal of the night with a similar shot to the one that got his first goal of this game.
After getting the ball in space, Salah dragged his shot across the Huddersfield goal but his shot lacked the accuracy by the slimmest of margins.
That could well have wrapped up the game but Huddersfield are still in this game.

Clever from Depoitre there to try a backheel but he doesn’t manage to pull it off. We’re heading for the final 20 minutes of this tie.

MISS!!
Mounié clips his shot over the bar from right in front of goal. Could that have been their best chance?
Just before that Depoitre tried to engineer something when the ball was delivered into him in the box. He just couldn’t control the ball under pressure and it was cleared away.

87 mins: Huddersfield 0-1 Liverpool
Huddersfield are still trying to get that equaliser but the breaks just aren’t falling their way. Liverpool have been wasteful but Huddersfield can’t manage to capitalise on it.
Liverpool have all the points and a clean sheet, but they were far from perfect this evening.
Huddersfield tried earnestly to get the equaliser but the breaks just wouldn’t come their way.
There were some positives for Liverpool. Salah got his name back on the scoresheet with a well-taken goal. Shaqiri was impressive throughout but Klopp looked to be quite frustrated on the sideline.

Salah helps the ball into the net to kill that bit of momentum Huddersfield had built up for the first 20 minutes.

That goal will do a lot for Salah’s confidence after going through some poor form in front of goal!

Penalty appeal from Shaqiri. He tries to send a cross in and the ball hits off Billing’s arm but the referee doesn’t think so and the play continues.
