47'
The half-time whistle has gone at Old Trafford, where an abject Man United are being held by Rochdale. The best chance, a free header from six yards out, was missed by Paul Pogba.
47'
Nice from Nombe, moving down the left to meet a straight pass from Gilbey before hooking a cross ahead of everyone.

One change made by MK, Russell Martin of Norwich City fame replacing Dickenson.

MK set away again.
20:32
Both sides played pretty well there. MK hustled well and made a couple of serious chances, while Liverpool dominated possession and also missed where they should've scored. But an error from Moore gifted Liverpool the lead, and you assume they'll close out from here.

Half-time: MK Dons 0-1 Liverpool
45'
There'll be one additional minute.
45'
Keita picks it up outside the box and tries to work a shooting opportunity, collapsing when Brittain challenges. He wants a free-kick, but none is forthcoming.
45'
Pedro has put Chelsea 3-1 up against Grimsby.
44'
Inventive nickname, this.
43'
Sticking to the facts, dem.

OH DEAR! GOAL! MK Dons 0-1 Liverpool (Milner) Milner takes the ball on the left corner of the box and thrashes across a shot that moves slightly in the air but is straight at Moore ... who somehow spills it, unable to retrieve with a desperate dive and flap. Ouch!
40'
Nombe gets away again, though Gomez gives him a proper race. Again, though, the flag goes up.
38'
I'd like to see more from Keita. It's really hard to grasp how the dynamic force of nature who played for Leipzig has become so passive and careless at Liverpool, a team who are exactly not those things.
36'
Oxlade-Chanberlain, who's been quiet, dashes into the box and, on the run, stands up a cross for Brewster, but Walsh intercedes.
34'
Villa now lead Brighton 2-0, and Wolves are 1-0 up on Reading.
32'
It's got a bit scrappy, testament to how well MK are getting stuck in.
30'
We've not been shy of chances! Keita lays off for Milner who, given time, moves the ball inside to curl in low ... and Brewster, scavenging, can't quite apply the final touch.

Look at Nombe! Again, he's causing trouble, getting around the back of Milner and crossing low. It's goes through bowery's legs ... I mean what a dummy ... and Gilbey hoists his finish high.
27'
If anyone was wondering why Liverpool were so keen to get their hands on Elliott, they're not any more.

I'll say it again because it's so again: MK are doing brilliantly off the ball to deny Liverpool time and space. So far, their wide players are struggling to get into the game ... but look at this! Elliott takes a pass with a glorious first touch that takes him inside Dickenson, and he then flights a fantastic ball over the defence for Milner at the far post! He should score, but stoops to head across Moore and wide, just.
