FT: Liverpool 1-1 Kazan. No fairytale first game at Anfield for Klopp as the Reds struggle to break down 10 men. Emre Can's goal cancelled out Marko Devic's opener but in truth the Reds didn't do enough to snatch the win.
90+3'
Lucas shoots!!! But it's WIDE!
90+2'
Skrtel meets a Liverpool corner but it's easy enough for the Kazan keeper. This one is all-but over.
90+1'
Kazan take an eternity to make use of a corner. They are close to a creditable draw with 10 men.

Three minutes added.
89'
Benteke rises once more to meet a left-wing cross but he can't generate the power to do anything with it and it rolls through to the keeper.
88'
Igor Portnyagin rises at the far post but fails to guide it anywhere near the goal after doing the hard part to reach the delivery from the right-wing corner.
87'
Some respite for Kazan as they earn a rare corner. Can they snatch it?
86'
Firmino shoots. Again it's from long range and once more it's not good enough from LFC's point of view. Time running out.
85'
Liverpool's crowd sensing they may still have some late drama to cheer.
84'
Another corner is worked to the right of the area and back into Benteke who arrows a shot wide of the near upright.
83'
A brilliant turn from Firmino in the area sees him get to the left byline and fizz in a low cross that is hacked away inside the six-yard box.
82'
Liverpool piling on the pressure now. Can has another go from distance but once more a Kazan body is in the way.

OFF THE POST! Lallana races into space and slips the ball onto Benteke who sees his first-time shot form the left of the area crash back off the far post.

Milner sees Lallana's run and curls a lovely ball into the area for the midfielder to chase, but a Kazan defender is there to hook it away on the stretch.
78'
The ball squirms towards Benteke in the area but he can't quite get there ahead of Ryzhikov, who dives gratefully on it inside his six-yard box.
