  1. HALF-TIMEpublished at 13:17 British Summer Time 2 April 2022

    Liverpool 1-0 Watford

    A tame half really. Liverpool won't care though. They have a 1-0 lead thanks to Diogo Jota's header, a few moments after Juraj Kucka was denied by Alisson in Watford's best chance.

  2. YELLOW CARDpublished at 45 mins

    Liverpool 1-0 Watford

    First yellow of the day for Joe Gomez. Joao Pedro was racing away from him on the left and the Liverpool defender decided he'd had enough!

    Liverpool 1-0 Watford

    Watford's free-kick on the left comes through to Alisson and he tries to send Diogo Jota on his way down the left.

    It comes to nothing but Liverpool win it back in the middle immediately and Mohamed Salah dances past a few players before it's robbed off him in the box.

    Liverpool 1-0 Watford

    Sloppy.

    It's a bit of ping pong in the middle. Watford want a free-kick, it's not given, Liverpool play on and move it over to Andy Robertson.

    His cross is poor, Watford's clearance is poor then Jordan Henderson slides it through to nobody in the box and it's out for a goal kick.

    Mohamed Salah cuts in from the right and tries to curl it goalwards. It's blocked by Christian Kabasele and out for a throw-in.

    The armchair football fan: In fairness to Watford, there's been absolutely nothing in this game. They've totally nullified Liverpool and I'm not sure they really did much wrong on the goal.

    Liverpool 1-0 Watford

    Diogo Jota has netted in each of his last three Premier League starts (four goals in total).

    It's his 14th Premier League goal this campaign and his 20th in all competitions for Liverpool this season.

    Liverpool are dominating but Watford have shown they can hurt Liverpool on the counter.

    They have given Liverpool and Jurgen Klopp enough to think about to make them uncomfortable.

    Liverpool 1-0 Watford

    Imran Souza is caught late by Curtis Jones and wins a free-kick. Jones gets a quick talking to.

  10. GREAT SAVE!published at 37 mins

    Liverpool 1-0 Watford

    Big save from Ben Foster!

    Andy Robertson drills it in low and scuffs it. Joel Matip improvises with a backheel flick which deflects off a Watford defender and falls for Diogo Jota.

    He has space on the left side of the box but dinks it straight at Foster, who was out quickly to close him down.

  11. Postpublished at 37 mins

    Liverpool 1-0 Watford

    It's well cleared by Liverpool and they press on the edge of the box to win it back from Hassane Kamara.

    He has to track Mohamed Salah all the way down the right and Liverpool win a corner.

    Liverpool 1-0 Watford

    Kiko Femenia's cross is blocked by Andy Robertson and it's a third corner of the match for Watford.

  13. Postpublished at 35 mins

    Liverpool 1-0 Watford

    Watford enjoy a few minutes of possession before Imran Louza attempts a diagonal over to Cucho Hernandez on the left.

    It's a decent idea because he had space to run into but the pass is way overcooked.

  14. Postpublished at 32 mins

    Liverpool 1-0 Watford

    It's lacking a bit of bite at the moment. Liverpool are not at their best and Watford have had a few opportunities but haven't been clinical.

    Roy Hodgson is pacing a little on the touchline.

  15. Postpublished at 29 mins

    Liverpool 1-0 Watford

    Good break from Liverpool.

    It's switched from right to left before Thiago slides it through to Roberto Firmino.

    He dummies it for Andy Robertson and Moussa Sissoko slides in to concede a corner. There's appeals for a penalty from the crowd but they won't get one.

    From the corner, Thiago smashes it over the bar but there's a foul in the middle anyway from Joel Matip.

    Dennis Ethan: TAA who? Joe Gomez just sent in a world class cross for Diogo Jota to guide into the net. He should be on plane to Qatar.

    Khan Karn: What a ball by Gomez, the forgotten man now has had MOTM last game and an assist this game.

    That is a big goal for Liverpool but they are still a little sloppy. Thiago's pass for Mohamed Salah is short and Hassane Kamara can jump in to counter-attack.

    His pass for Cucho Hernandez is equally poor though, and the Watford forward can only win a throw-in.

  18. 'Jota has done brilliantly well'published at 12:56 British Summer Time 2 April 2022

    Liverpool 1-0 Watford

    Andy Reid
    Ex-Republic of Ireland midfielder on BBC Radio 5 Live

    It’s a really well worked goal.

    We talk about the role of a centre-forward and their main job is to get goals – Diogo Jota has done that brilliantly well.

    Watford will be very disappointed. It’s a poor goal to give away after looking relatively comfortable.

  19. goal

    GOAL - Liverpool 1-0 Watfordpublished at 12:52 British Summer Time 2 April 2022

    Diogo Jota (22 mins)

    That's football.

    Moments after that chance for Watford, Liverpool go down the right with Joe Gomez and he swings in a lovely cross for Diogo Jota.

    The Portuguese flicks it into the far corner with his head and that's Liverpool 1-0 up.

  20. GREAT SAVE!published at 12:52 British Summer Time 2 April 2022

    Liverpool 0-0 Watford

    What a chance!

    Juraj Kucka is free down the left. He's got space to run into and he's onside. He carries it into the box and tries to slide it past Alisson but it's a brilliant save from the Liverpool keeper.
