"Emre Can disputed it but he was definitely holding for the free-kick. A poor effort from Dwight Gayle though. He has had to defend more than he would like to today, as a striker."

Dwight Gayle takes it - he goes for goal and blasts it over! Head in hands from Gayle. A waste.

FIVE MINUTES added on...

Crystal Palace win a free-kick. Good spot on the left wing this. Got to be a good ball in...

Here we go - into the last minute. Rickie Lambert wins a corner, Liverpool will keep it in the corner...

Will we have more late drama from Dwight Gayle and co? Fraizer Campbell is close to meeting Joel Ward's cross from the right - but he can't get there.

"Liverpool are making Crystal Palace do all the running now. They are using the width of the pitch very well, forcing Palace to work hard to close them down. It's very hard work to have to chase the ball, especially at this stage of the game."

You're in! Jordan Henderson strips the ball from a dawdling Joe Ledley in side his own area, Henderson waits, he tries to pick out Mario Balotelli for a tap-in but Scott Dann is across to clear his lines.

That would have killed it.

What they have, they hold. Liverpool hold it very nicely, but they are not being pressured particularly hard by a flat Crystal Palace. Dwight Gayle has been anonymous in this second half.

"What we have, we hold. That is Liverpool at the moment and I can fully understand that. If they get through this game they are only one match away from Wembley, and that's another thing for Brendan Rodgers to put on his CV. But Crystal Palace have only lost one of seven matches since Alan Pardew took over."

Jordan Henderson gets through some yards in a game and here he is again, overlapping the overlap to pick the ball up on the right wing, he swings in a cracking early cross to but Julian Speroni is alive to it and beats it away from in front of Rickie Lambert.

Daniel Sturridge's night is done, he comes off to a few jeers as Rickie Lambert takes his place. The final change of the game sees Dejan Lovren on in place of Philippe Coutinho.

Not like for like. Very much not.

The Chosen One: Gary Lineker's just jealous that back in his heyday the only dance they had was the Charleston... (see 70 mins)

Palace could do with chucking on Shola Ameobi and/or Yaya Sanogo - but neither are on the bench tonight. In fact their last change sees Wilfried Zaha on in place of Yannick Bolasie.

Harry Kane and Daniel Sturridge up front for England anyone? (see 53 mins)

Mark, London: Sturridge and Kane would be deadly, and a partnership for the long-term! Sturridge will stretch defences and Kane will have the extra space to do 'his thing'. Come on Roy, do the right thing!

Dan, Bedford: Kane's strength over Sturridge is his ability to use two feet, and he brings other players into the game in a way that only Wayne Rooney seems to do. Sturridge is a great finisher in his own right but his inability to be flexible in his shooting will limit him progressing any further.

There is a disappointing lack of urgency about this game in the closing stages. What's the opposite of 'a proper cup tie?'

A fraudulent cup tie? Liverpool just look comfortable and Palace look content enough to go along with it. Can they raise it?

"Liverpool are having a spell of controlled possession which is wise. It just eases the pressure. If the away side are disciplined from here they should be able to get through this game."

That celebratory dance. Yes. I didn't want to mention it, but Daniel Sturridge performed it in duet with Alberto Moreno after his goal.

What's wrong with a handshake and a swift walk back to the centre-circle?

Gary Lineker
BBC Sport

"I do like Daniel Sturridge. I like his confidence, his movement, his finishing, his calmness. I could, however, live without the dance."

It has been an afternoon of handball appeals, they have come thick and fast, and here's another as Alberto Moreno's arm is hit by the bouncing ball. Again, there is nothing given. Alan Pardew disagrees with that call. In the strongest terms.
