    GOAL - Ajax 0-2 Liverpoolpublished at 21:07 British Summer Time 26 October 2022

    Darwin Nunez (49 mins)

    Lovely finish!

    Darwin Nunez doesn't let that open goal miss before half time affect him as he directs a brilliant header from a corner into the back of the net.

    Liverpool in control and cruising into the knockouts.

    Matt Doherty whips in a cross and Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg concedes a foul for jumping over Nuno Santos to get to it. He didn't get there anyway.

  4. Unconvincing Spurs under pressurepublished at 21:05 British Summer Time 26 October 2022

    Spurs 0-1 Sporting

    Phil McNulty
    BBC Sport chief football writer at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium

    The loud booing when the half-time whistle sounded just about summed up the mood around the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. Spurs were right off the pace with Sporting looking so much sharper.

    Spurs simply have to produce better because this Sporting side are probing their vulnerability and exploiting the nervousness among fans.

    Ajax 0-1 Liverpool

    No changes for either side at the start of the second half. Ajax need to start this as they did the first and try and get a quick goal because nothing less than a win will do for the hosts.

    More of the same in the second half. Sporting look in the mood a lot more than Spurs. Hugo Lloris punches away a Francisco Trincao cross.

    HT: Spurs 0-1 Sporting

    Chris Sutton
    Former Aston Villa striker on BBC Radio 5 Live

    Tottenham have been so bad, so lethargic. This is why sometimes managers love to come out with messages. Conte was talking about fatigue, maybe the players believe it that they are fatigued and that they are tired.

    They look miles off it, it will be interesting to see if there are any changes at half-time. Sporting have looked far, far better. We haven't seen anything from Spurs other than the occasional ball into Harry Kane and that's when they do look dangerous.

    Conte comes out with these negative messages and tells us that the players are tired in October.

    Football Focus: FC Barcelona's big gamble

    It has been a turbulent few years for Catalan giants Barcelona - from poor results on the pitch to huge gambles off it, and now they've crashed out of the Champions League group stage again.

    Find out what is going on at the Nou Camp here.

    Luckily we actually did a profile piece on Marcus Edwards before this game.

    HT: Spurs 0-1 Sporting

    Chris Sutton
    Former Aston Villa striker on BBC Radio 5 Live

    Spurs deserve the boos at half-time. They have been hopeless. Great story with Marcus Edwards scoring against his former club, a brilliant goal and beating Lloris. Sporting have been the better team, they've outplayed Tottenham. I suppose the only positive for Tottenham is that they can't be any worse in the second half.

    Lukasz: No pen - No Kane - No Gain.

    Nick: I know he doesn’t like making changes before around the 80th minute, but Conte has got to bring on Heung-Min Son at half time.

    Laurence: Conte has taken away the whole concept of attacking football. His team selection always has no midfield creativity.

    Bayern Munich lead Barcelona 2-0 at the break.

    Barca thought they had a penalty late on, and Robert Lewandowski was getting ready to take it against his old club, but Anthony Taylor changed his mind after a VAR review.

    Advantage Liverpool at the break thanks to Mo Salah's goal just before half time.

    No spark. No energy. Anaemic performance in this 1st half from Spurs. Total reliance on Kane & Son exploiting an opponent's mistake. Except it's Lloris making all mistakes recently.

    Giles, Derry

    I hate to be the Spurs fan that says it, but Conte out? We used to play exciting football. To dare is to do! Please Antonio, let the forwards play and let the team press.

  18. HALF-TIMEpublished at 20:46 British Summer Time 26 October 2022

    The half-time whistle goes.

    As things stand, Spurs are only above third-placed Eintracht Frankfurt on their head-to-head record.

    This scoreline means Liverpool will go through to the knockout stages while Ajax will be eliminated. Plenty of football still to be played, however.

    Ajax 0-1 Liverpool

    Should be 2-0!

    Liverpool slice through the Ajax defence and Roberto Firmino plays a supremely unselfish ball across goal to the unmarked Darwin Nunez, who has to score but somehow hits the post.
