63 Milner Philips and Robbo came off for the change


Ayew is replaced by Edouard

[TepidT2O]

This ref is utter shite

[TepidT2O]

65 free kick to us 30 yards out towards the corner of the area.  Forearm in Tsimikas face.  No yellow obviously

Free kick is too long

[Rush 82]

learn from Kostas lads - that's how you get stuff from this ref - go down like you're shot and roll around

Legit foul mind you

[TepidT2O]

Over to Jill

[jillcwhomever]

68 Joel Ward gets a yellow card.

[jillcwhomever]

69 A nice beginning to the move there with Henderson finding Tsimikas in plenty of space, but the cross goes straight to the keeper.

[Rush 82]

Oh Trent...over eager - fortunately blushes saved by the fact that he looked offside anyway.

[jillcwhomever]

70 Oh Trent, what happened there? A lovely through ball from Fab, Salah does a lovely back heel but Trent then loses his composure and it goes wide.

He would have been offside to be fair

[jillcwhomever]

71 Palace players diving to the ground and staying down there milking the minutes away. Ref naturally allows it.

[jillcwhomever]

He would have been offside to be fair

Yep, saw that on the replay.

[Rush 82]

Palace sticking to their plan despite us being down to 10 - soak up the pressure and try to catch us on the counter again.

[jillcwhomever]

75 We get a corner after Salah turns a defender, but it's a disappointing one.

[Rush 82]

Diaz an absolute firecracker! Came tracking back like a bat out of hell to rob the Palace player of the ball.

[jillcwhomever]

76 Anderson is literally holding Salah as he moves across the box and the ref just does nothing. It's completely stupid  now.

[TepidT2O]

Incredible what the ref is letting go…

Mo is getting murdered

[Rush 82]

Mo literally being pulled by the arm by Anderson in the penalty area - ignored. He doesn't even both protesting anymore - just tries to get the ball.

It's disgraceful the way he's allowed to be manhandled.

[jillcwhomever]

77 The game is getting a bit stretched now and going from end to end, Zaha should have done better there.

[TepidT2O]

Mo literally being pulled by the arm by Anderson in the penalty area - ignored. He doesn't even both protesting anymore - just tries to get the ball.

It's disgraceful the way he's allowed to be manhandled.

Literally nothing is a foul in the area …incredible

[jillcwhomever]

78, Carvalho on for Elliot. Well played son. 

[TepidT2O]

And again!

He’s just dragged Mo over in the area in a bear hug

[jillcwhomever]

79 Yet again Palace defender holding on to Diaz and ref ignores it. 

[TepidT2O]

79 Yet again Palace defender holding on to Diaz and ref ignores it. 

Hiw is that not a penalty? How?

[Rush 82]

Has VAR gone on holiday? We're being fouled at will in the penalty area.

[jillcwhomever]

82 We get a free kick (yes I did say say a free kick!) but Tsimikas's delivery is disappointing.

[jillcwhomever]

84 We are doing a good fist of this considering we are a man down, just wish we would keep a bit more simple rather than trying the fancier balls at the moment.

[Rush 82]

Klopp not too pleased with Kostas delivery - kicking it too deep.

[jillcwhomever]

86 Aaah, Salah almost squeezed that in. Some great play with Diaz, Tsimikas and Henderson but Salah's shot just goes wide.

[jillcwhomever]

88 We get a free kick, but Salah can't keep the ball in play and it goes out for a goal kick.

[Rush 82]

Oh! Now Ward is penalised for holding onto Diaz - the others were much worse and were ignored.

[jillcwhomever]

89 We get another free kick, this time Trent puts a good ball in it comes out to, Carvalho but the shot is wide.

[Rush 82]

Dammit! Now Carvalho with a lovely shot but can't hit the target.

[jillcwhomever]

90+5

We have five minutes, come on Reds. The goalie has finally been booked.

[Rush 82]

89 We get another free kick, this time Trent puts a good ball in it comes out to, Carvalho but the shot is wide.

Palace keeper finally picked up a card for time wasting in between all of that.

[jillcwhomever]

92 Just send the goalie off ref, being spoken to constantly but of course takes all the time in the world. Tsimikas was booked as well.

[Rush 82]

and a foot stand that was ignored against Hendo last week earns Carvalho a card this week.

what a farce this league has become.

[TepidT2O]

Hughes just tried to knock the ball away for the ball boy so he couldn’t return it.

[jillcwhomever]

94 We are looking to move the ball again, but the ref realises he's not given them a free kick for a few minutes and obliges.

[Rush 82]

It's going to be a long season.
