FT
The final whistle goes and Anfield erupts. That's a huge win for Liverpool... and Brendan Rodgers.
93'
Daniel Sturridge is given a standing ovation as he is replaced by Allen for the final few seconds of the match.
92'
Liverpool
Liverpool are camped in the Villa half, running the clock down and looking for a fourth to put the game to bed.
90'
There will be four minutes of added time. Can Liverpool hold on, or will Villa snatch a late equaliser.
89'
87'
Sturridge isolates Richards on the break, but the defender holds firm and nicks the ball away at the crucial moment. If Sturridge had been able to twist his way out of that challenge then he'd have been clean through.
86'
85'
85'
Sturridge is played in behind the Villa defence. He's in the area with only the keeper to beat, but Guzan gets a fingertip to the ball to tip a curling shot around the post. That should have been the game for Liverpool and a hat-trick for the England striker!
84'
Ings responds by giving away a needless foul on halfway. Liverpool are rattled. Can they hang on to give Rodgers a much-needed win?
83'
Sturridge works the ball through to Ings, but his shot from an angle is blocked. He was offside anyway, but the linesman didn't spot it.
81'
Adama coming on for Grealish has added pace and creativity to the Villa attack. Maybe the sub is the one who should be worth £60m?!
80'
Gana has a pop from distance, but it's a comfortable save for Mignolet. Villa are starting to get some joy down the flanks and Liverpool are in real danger of dropping points in a game that they have totally dominated.
79'
77'
It took well over an hour, but Villa have finally come to life. A free-kick picks out the head of Richards, but he can't keep his effort down.
75'
Gestede's ability in the air is something else. It's odd that Villa don't put more crosses in, given how dominant he's looking up against the Liverpool centre-backs.
74'
Guzan gets down sharply to keep out a free-kick from Coutinho.
73'
72'
This game has exploded to life, thanks to very differing doubles from Gestede and Sturridge. Can Villa grab a third?
70'
GOOOAAALLL!!! Gestede at the double! The Villa forward charges on to a floated cross and thumps an unstoppable header past Mignolet. What a goal!
