Mason Mount isn't just supremely talented, he's a scrapper too.

He flies past one man, knuckles down to graft the ball past another and is then fouled. Positive stuff.

Lots of Chelsea fans are still returning to their seats after the half-time break. They've missed their side's best spell of the final. Liverpool have simply not got going this half.

Tell you what, there have been some shots close to posts this game!

Luis Diaz turns brilliantly on the edge of the box and whistles a low shot just wide of the Chelsea upright. Edouard Mendy was beaten.

What a cross!

Trent Alexander-Arnold whips in a peach of ball to the far post and it finds Andy Robertson, who can only poke it past the post. Reece James does just enough by jumping to put the full-back off.

Agus: TAA is getting eaten alive in that right. I guess James is in line for that starting spot in the national team. TAA is not doing anything defensively.

Jude: Alexander-Arnold showing then what a poor defender he is. No idea that Alonso was behind him, ball watching.

Chelsea have been brilliant in the second half.

Chelsea were edging into the contest before this, but Liverpool haven't had the same cohesion or attacking punch since Mohamed Salah went off. I mean, it's not surprising. He is an elite level forward.

Unbelievable. It's all Chelsea. That delivery from Alonso, I thought it was going to be a cross. But Alonso's absolutely smashed it.

Chelsea have come out the blocks. Liverpool can't deal with it.

You get the right runners off Lukaku you'll have a chance.

Wow!

Chelsea really have come out with the bit between their teeth.

Marcos Alonso's free-kick from a tight angle on the right beats Alisson and smashes against the bar before bouncing clear.

Chelsea are doing to Liverpool what the Reds did to them in the first half.

It's a cup final for the keepers at the minute - Alisson and Mendy are the stars of the show.

A really good start from Chelsea to this second half.

They have come out with an appetite and a belief – they know there are chances out there.

The Pulisic chance is a really good one.

Romelu Lukaku is strong to hold the ball up and then slick to lay it off for the American. Shot was too close to Alisson.

Chelsea come out swinging!

Mason Mount is offside as the ball is fed to him on the right. He stops and allows a team-mate to cross for Marcos Alonso to fire just wide of the far post.

Soon after, Christian Pulisic draws a fine save from Alisson.

We go again. Time to turn some chances into goals, lads.

LFCScouser: Not confident at all going into the second half

Andy: Chelsea had the best chances with Pulisic & Alonso and James now has Diaz locked down. Big 2nd half from Mount to come.. Yellow Submarines

Huge roar from the Chelsea end as Blues legend Gianfranco Zola is interviewed on the side of the pitch as part of the FA Cup's 150th anniversary celebrations.

Zola won the famous trophy twice with Chelsea.

Has he brought his boots?

Chelsea manager Thomas Tuchel was beside himself for the opening 15 minutes as Liverpool threatened to take his side to the cleaners. His body language was frantic but Chelsea have survived until the break and he might just be feeling a little better now.

Should Romelu Lukaku have done better with this?

Tony: The ref is having a great game. Letting the game flow. Tackles flying in. Loving this final. Red win.

Diaz has been frightening - Reece James and Trevoh Chalobah don't quite know when to go and when to stay.

Chalobah has been left isolated one v one against one of the best players on the pitch and Chelsea have got lucky.

The way Liverpool apply the pressure to prevent Chelsea getting out has been brilliant to watch.
