    The 6,000 travelling Blackburn fans are making a tremendous din as they toast their players. Great scenes for those away fans, a fine effort al round. Can they go one better at home?

    Blackburn shut Liverpool out and earn a hard-earned replay at Ewood Park. When that is, I can't tell you right now. It could be pushed back to April...

  3. INJURY TIMEpublished at 17:56 Greenwich Mean Time 8 March 2015

    ONE MINUTE added on.

    Liverpool, out to Philippe Coutinho on the left. No final ball though...

    Blackburn minutes away from a replay now...

    "Mario Balotelli was a little bit unlucky. He anticipated the cross but just couldn't get anything on it and then Raheem Sterling wasn't ready at the back post. Good movement from Balotelli this time though."

    Constant pressure on the Blackburn goal, it must be horrible for the Rovers fans, but Liverpool not cutting them open. The latest foray sees a deep cross reach Raheem Sterling at the far post but he can't guide a header on target.

  9. GREAT SAVE!published at 17:49 Greenwich Mean Time 8 March 2015

    Good save this time! A corner falls for Jordan Henderson, it is a tight angle but he hammers it in and Simon Eastwood does really well to shovel it out of the danger zone. He had two strikers waiting for a tap in.

    Moments later Philippe Coutinho wriggles past two defenders but fires into the side-netting.

    Can Blackburn hang on? They are under siege.

    "Mario Balotelli's 20 yards out and he tries to sidefoot it into the corner. Why didn't he just smash it? Poor."

    "Absolute waste! Peaks and troughs for Philippe Coutinho.

    "Still excellent from Blackburn. They have limited Liverpool to very few chances. And they have not tried to kick them, just make it hard for them."

    Mario Balotelli with another shot on sight, 25 yards out this time and he hits the target, right at Simon Eastwood though in the Rovers goal.

    Mario Balotelli earns a free-kick on the left wing, Philippe Coutinho to take it - awful. Into the crowd.

    Dan, London: It's official, no team wants to win the FA Cup. What an appalling round of games.

    Andy, Stafford: Lovren being beaten in every aerial challenge and skinned a dozen times. Johnson's given the ball away every time he's got it. And then there's Toure. Worried Liverpool fan.

    Ian, Bristol: It's a funny old world this FA Cup when we've relied on Aston Villa for the only goals so far. Weird!

    Liverpool edging 70% of possession over the piece, but it remains a stalemate. Who can find the inspiration?

    Liverpool looking like drawing 0-0 at home to Bolton and Blackburn in this season's FA Cup. Not the most entertaining cup run.

    "A dangerous spell for Blackburn because it is just as though they have weathered the storm a little bit. But they just can't get the ball up to Rudy Gestede anymore and it just keeps coming back."

  18. Postpublished at 17:39 Greenwich Mean Time 8 March 2015

    Daniel Sturridge has a shot on the run but it's out of control and into the stand. This game is danger of petering out now.

    Kolo Toure now limping after jarring his knee, Liverpool running out of defenders fast. Get your boots on Lawro!

    "That is extremely poor from Balotelli. He tries to shoot from 35 yards, ignoring all his team-mates. He needs to do more, that is just not good enough. You want to see him work harder, move quicker."
