Liverpool vs Southampton LIVE! Darwin double gives Reds boost before break

This, plus marks out of ten and player of the match award here.

But both sides will take something from the game. Nathan Jones will be happy the way his side battled until the end and the Reds pleased they narrow the gap between themselves and some of those above.

But van Dijk calmly heads the ball back to his goalkeeper.

They replace Nunez, Robertson and Alexander-Arnold.

A smart header from six yards out but Alisson once more was ewqual to the effort.

It has been a fine game from the Brazilian.

Another fine cross from Robertson and the centre back was still up from a free kick but could not steer his header on target.

Milner replaces him, making his 600th appearance.

He clattered Eliiott just after the young Red shifted the ball away from him.

He and Adams exchange passes in the area but the young substitute's effort is blocked by Alisson.

He slips as he was shooting under pressure from Salisu. He wants a penalty but nothing doing.

Edozie, Walcott and Maitland-Niles come on.

Caleta-Car, Stuart and Adam Armstrong leave the field.

A trademark pin-point cross from Alexander-Arnold but Salah's body is not facing the right way and he heads high over the bar from six yards.

And he makes good contact with it but heads a yard over the bar.

But Adam Armstrong's shot is straight at Alisson.

Nunez has a big smile on his face - and why not.

He nipped the ball from Fabinho in the box after sloppy defending from the Liverpool man, but the referee's whistle went - and then Adams shot wide.
