HALF TIME

Ooooooohhhhhhh that was close! Johnson sends a great ball forward towards Darren Bent who is clean through! The keeper has to rush off his line to close it down and stop a shock equaliser! The referee calls for half time.

45 mins+1

Klopp isn't happy about two very heavy challenges on Coutinho near the corner and has a lot to say to the fourth official about it. One minute of injury time to go.

It's all Liverpool. They win corner after corner, and mix that up by putting together attack after attack. Henderson comes over to take the latest corner, fires it into the six yard box... and the keeper catches. He throws it out quickly for Andreas Weimann, star of such clubs as Aston Villa, but Liverpool win it back easily.

Coutinho wins a free-kick about 30 yards from goal and will fancy having a punt from here. He does have a shot and it's a decent effort! Hit with speed and dip, Mitchell has to tip the ball over the bar.




Nothing comes of the corner but Liverpool are relentless in winning the ball back and getting forward again. Every single player looks up for this too - you'd never tell it was that cup that nobody really cares about until the quarter-final.

That's the players celebrating Klavan's goal. Derby have a chance to get the ball in Liverpool's box now though, as Will Hughes lines up a free-kick wide on the right. His left-footed cross lands in the DANGER ZONE but Lucas gets his foot up high to clear.

Liverpool are on the counter now though! It's Origi vs two defenders... can he go past them?! No. He forgets to take the ball with him when near the box.

Derby survive another couple of corners, with Matip heading over from six yards on the second. He was tightly marked so it's not a terrible miss.

Darren Bent (yes, him) is totally isolated upfront at the moment getting no help from his team-mates. Liverpool look dangerous when going forward too.

32 mins

What a pass from Lucas and what a touch from Moreno! The Brazilian sends a cross field pass out to the left wing and Moreno kills it dead with one touch, playing in Firmino with the next. Firmino wins a corner but Derby defend  it a lot better this time and get the ball away.

8:15pm

30 mins

Liverpool's forwards put together a great wee move, firing quick one-twos together as Derby desperately try to hold it together. The away side look a yard sharper and faster all over the pitch at the moment, which makes sense given the gulf in resources and playing staff on show.

Moreno is playing high up the pitch, brings the team forward at high speed and then plays a bad pass out to the opposite wing. Coutinho can't keep the ball in play.

Great save from Mitchell! Origi turns his man in the box and shoots on his left foot from a narrow angle but the keeper palms it away.
