Brad Smith lines up his sights from 25 yards and puts his laces through it.

His drilled effort is wide though.

Neither side really look like they have a winner in them.

Exeter will take the replay cash. Liverpool will take the relief and a return to Anfield.

Three minutes to go.

"Is it your hamstring? Is it your hamstring?"

Exeter's fans are short on sympathy for Brad Smith as he goes down injured.

Smith is back on his feet, but hobbling. Liverpool have used all three of the substitutes already.

Sheyi Ojo takes the long route around the Exeter defence, but skins Alex Nicholls for pace and manages to get a cross in.

Goalkeeper Bobby Olejnik claims though.

Joel Grant replaces Lee Holmes for Exeter in the final change of the night.

"It was a difficult one - that penalty appeal. But I think referee Stuart Attwell got that right again. He's had a good night."

Sheyi Ojo goes down as he gets in front of Troy Brown in the chase for a low cross.

"No penalty," says Stuart Attwell, Another top-drawer call, Brown got a toe on the ball. Just.

Joao Teixeira through the middle onto Christian Benteke's flick...nope.

Bobby Olejnik is off his blocks and out at the Liverpool midfielder's feet to smother.

Tom Nichols looks a player.

The Exeter man loses Jose Enrique in a square yard and whips a glorious ball across the face of the Liverpool goal.

None of the Liverpool defence were near it. Unfortunately for Nichols, neither were his team-mates.

Liverpool have a chance to aim towards Christian Benteke as Sheyi Ojo is fouled down by the Exeter byeline.

Just over the top of the Belgian and Kevin Stewart clatters a shot over the top on the half-volley.

Alex White: A replay would actually be a good result. Not good for the fixture congestion though..

Jurgen Klopp shores it up at the back, whipping off Tiago Ilori to be replaced by Joe Maguire.

Liverpool are a man down at the back.

Tiago Ilori, short of match fitness, is hobbling around at the back with his socks around his ankles.

"It's come a little bit against the run of play. What a finish from the young lad. Not the best clearance, but didn't he take it well. That was an instinctive finish from the full-back."

"I'm trying to think of a scenario where Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp would use Lucas and Adam Lallana. If you're not going to use Adam Lallana when you're losing then why bring him?"

Liverpool substitute Adam Lallana is off for a jog down the touchline.

Is he going to get a rather urgent salvage job?

Liverpool goalscorer Jerome Sinclair is removed and Sheyi Ojo - fresh from a loan spell at Wolves - is on in his place.

Ojo clumps a cross horribly long with his first involvement in the game.

The Exeter fans are breaking out their own version of the Toure brothers chant in honour of their (unrelated) duo Tom Nichols and Alex Nicholls.

Liverpool are giving them no worries at the moment.

Still Adam Lallana waits on the bench.

Is there any point bringing one of your first-team picks on a 250-mile trip if you are not going to deploy them at a time like this?
