    Slavia Prague come close to equalising twice against Barcelona in 60 seconds.

    First of all Lukas Masopust's low shot is saved by Marc-Andre ter Stegen at the second attempt.

    And then the German keeper does brilliantly to tip Peter Olayinka's curling effort away from the top corner.

    Genk have played really well. They've weathered the early storm from Liverpool.

    Genk break out of the storm to have some pressure of their own, Joakim Maehle gets in down the right but his cross is overhit.

    It's poor play from Liverpool, they've been sloppy. It's allowing Genk to get forward and cause problems. That's been the problem for the majority of the half, Liverpool's passing has been sloppy.

    Now Mo Salah heads wide after Dejan Lovren's flick-on. Certainly feels like there are more goals to come.

    It was an incredible ball. Robertson couldn't quite find the right pass because there were three players waiting for a tap-in.

    Genk 0-1 Liverpool

    Andy Robertson is inside the area and puts a cross/shot across goal but it's well dealt with, before Mo Salah is almost in on the other side of the box and wins a corner.

    In Group F Inter Milan have taken the lead against Borussia Dortmund through Lautaro Martinez.

    A lovely dinked ball over the top from Stefan de Vrij was controlled by Martinez on the stretch and then slotted past Roman Burki.

    There was a check for offside with English officials Stuart Attwell and Paul Tierney in the VAR room but the goal stands.

    Mo Salah lines up the free-kick but deposits over the bar.

    Here we go, a replay of the disallowed goal, Junya Ito ajudged to be offside. Again, it's grains of sand...

    Naby Keita is a bit lucky again, overrunning the ball and getting a cheap free-kick when a counter was on.

    Genk 0-1 Liverpool

    The goal is chalked off for offside in the build-up. Unhelpfully they didn't show any relevant replays so I can't tell you if that's a good call or not.

    Dennis Ethan: That's a sumptuous 'goal' by Mbwana Sammata.

    VAR wasn't used for that call. What I can say is that it was an amazing header, Ally Mbwana Samatta towered over James Milner to thump it into the back of the net.

    VAR are now checking this. I can't see anything wrong with it.
