Matheus Pereira has caused all kinds of problems for West Ham today. He comes close again before Grady Diangana replaces Ainsley Maitland-Niles for the last 20 minutes or so.

Trent Alexander-Arnold gets in behind and forces a save from Will Norris with a header but he's offside.

That would have been embarrassing for West Brom keeper Sam Johnstone.

He was waiting in the centre of his six-yard box for a curling cross. Instead Cresswell whipped his free-kick low towards the corner.

Johnstone would have got nowhere near it if that had been on target.

Dwight McNeil puts an excellent delivery in from the corner. James Tarkowski gets on the end of it at the back post but Nat Phillips clears it off the goalline for Liverpool!

It was a terrific effort, and but for a couple of inches and goalframe paint, West Ham would have gone ahead.

Aaron Cresswell curls a lovely free-kick in towards the left corner but he cracks the outside of the post!

Tomas Soucek goes close at one end for West Ham then David Moyes side almost cause a problem in their own six-yard area.

Aaron Cresswell stops the cross coming through to Hal Robson-Kanu but he smacks it against Angelo Ogbonna and there's a hurried clearance to stop Matheus Pereira getting the rebound.

Mohamed Salah almost races on to a pass from Roberto Firmino but Charlie Taylor and Will Norris do just enough to muscle him out of the way.

Josh Brownhill picks it up just outside the box after a nice touch from Chris Wood but it's straight at Alisson.

Said Benrahma tries to slide it across to Michail Antonio in the box but Semi Ajayi is there to poke it behind for a corner.

Dan Martins: Absolutely gutted for Leicester. Don't think Liverpool will slip against Palace, even in Roy's last game.

Worth pointing out that goal difference could play a big part on the final day if Liverpool end up level on points with Leicester as they currently are.

They could do with netting a few more. After goal difference, it's goals scored that counts.

Crystal Palace

Crystal Palace boss Roy Hodgson to BBC Sport: “Just before the second goal we were through on goal and hoping for a penalty. That’s how close we were. The two goals were harsh. I think we would have deserved 1-1. It would have been a wonderful end to the evening which has been dominated a bit by my departure.

“It was great. We’d have loved to get something and send the fans home happy. It was pretty obvious they were happy to be here and saw it as a special occasion and a chance to say goodbye and my chance to say goodbye to them. In that aspect it was a huge success but you don’t always get the icing on the cake you’d like."

On managing his boyhood club: “It’s been exceptionally good. I never really envisaged it. From being on the terraces at the age of five and finish managing team at age of 73 – it’s something of a fairytale or like Roy of the Rovers. It’s been a privilege. I’m delighted with the reception they gave me. It seem they appreciated me as much as I appreciated them and that’s a nice feeling.”

On his favourite moment at Palace: “In a year or so I might say tonight was the standout moment. A guard of honour, people cheering you throughout and the reception at the end. Not all managers have experienced that in their life. It was a nice feeling. I’m sure that will mean more to me than the odd game or good performance I remember.”

Tomas Soucek is done by a smart turn from Hal Robson-Kane and the Baggies have a free-kick about 25 yards out.

It's played short to Matt Phillips but his cross is blocked. Not sure why Matheus Pereira didn't just curl that in.

Mohamed Salah tees up Georginio Wijnaldum on the edge of the box but he doesn't hit it first time, instead taking a touch and being forced back as there's a sea of claret and blue in front of him.

Ashley Westwood latches on to a flicked header at the near post but his volley rolls comfortably into Alisson's arms.

They almost score too, West Brom!

Semi Ajayi pounces on a loose ball in the six-yard area but he can only poke it straight at Darren Randolph from a yard or so out.

West Ham are having to defend here. Conor Gallagher takes a short corner and Pablo Fornals comes across to deal with it.

Pablo Fornals has a few bites of the cherry and he gives away a free-kick on the right.

Conor Gallagher whips it in but Matt Phillips can't pick it up on the far side.
