90'+7'

FULL-TIME: BRENTFORD 1-2 LIVERPOOL

90'+6'

Ajer and Kayode usher Barcola out of trouble, but the flagging few have little options as they clear their lines.

90'+5'

Liverpool are UNABLE to kill this one off as Barcola and Koumas botch a two-v-one against former Red, Kelleher.

90'+4'

Kayode loses his footing on the edge of the Liverpool area, and the away side can push forward. The move culminates with Koumas firing on target, with Kelleher saving. Now, Andrews roars his side forward yet again!

90'+3'

Mac Allister lashes a wild free-kick off target. Can the nine of Brentford get anything out of this in the minutes that remain? They're still in it, despite being two men down.

90'+2'BrentfordRed Card

RED CARD! It's the second dismissal of the day for the hosts, as Janelt loses the ball to Ngumoha and then tracks back to foul him from behind on the edge of the home box! That's the German's second booking after his first for dissent earlier. It's been a tough day for the Bees. Now they're down to nine.
