FULL TIME.

90'
There will be THREE minutes of additional time to be played.
87'
Ings almost makes an immediate impact, but drags his shot wide from inside the box. That would have been the icing on the cake for Klopp, had the substitute scored.
86'
Coutinho screws a shot wide from distance. And that will be his last action of an eventful evening, as he is replaced by Ings.

The game is rather petering out now as we enter the final five minutes of normal time. It has been a productive evening for Liverpool, but Bournemouth are heading for a seventh straight game without victory.
83'
Danny Ings is about to come on for Liverpool.
82'
WIDE!
Oxlade-Chamberlain is determined to get on the scoresheet, but he will have to do better than this. He is released on the right by Coutinho, but slices his effort wide of goal.
81'
80'
Nice work from Stanislas on the channel but his cross is blocked by Klavan. Still no way through for the Cherries, then.
78'
To their credit, Bournemouth are still moving the ball around patiently and hoping an opening appears in Liverpool's defence. Say it quietly but Lovren has been rather solid this evening.
76'
75'
Dominic Solanke replaces Firmino for the remaining 15 minutes. The forward had a goal controversially ruled out in the draw with West Brom, but what impact can he make here?

Bournemouth can't create a chance from the resulting free-kick and now Liverpool break, with Firmino leading the charge. He picks out Coutinho but the Brazilian fails to convert.
72'
Lallana is clearly lacking match fitness and he goes into the book for a foul on Ibe who had raced past him.
