Eddie Nketiah is in the book now as he catches Endo late.
Liverpool 1-1 Arsenal
Mohamed Salah is furious as he is adjudged to have fouled Eddie Nketiah.
He kicks the ball away and then clearly dissents in the direction of the referee and goes in the book.
Liverpool 1-1 Arsenal

I have seen them given. It's a very strange challenge from Trent Alexander-Arnold because he almost pushes Havertz in the back. He goes down and I think it is quite clumsy that challenge from Alexander-Arnold.
Liverpool 1-1 Arsenal
Arsenal's last game was on Sunday, while Liverpool had Carabao Cup action on Wednesday.
Could that impact the final eight minutes plus stoppage time?
Liverpool 1-1 Arsenal
Appeals for a penalty from Arsenal, and in particular their fans behind the goal, as Kai Havertz tries to get in front of Trent Alexander-Arnold.
VAR checks it but says no penalty.

Set up for a Nuñez SCREAMER!

Liverpool 1-1 Arsenal
Arsenal's turn to build some pressure.
Bukayo Saka is crowded out before Declan Rice's scuffed effort is blocked by Ibrahima Konate.

He is going to have to do a bit more than Gabriel Jesus. He has found it difficult against Konate and Van Dijk.
He doesn't drop quite as deep as Jesus so he will pose a different threat to the Liverpool defence
Liverpool 1-1 Arsenal
Eddie Nketiah comes on for Gabriel Jesus for Arsenal.
A focal point for the closing stages.
Liverpool 1-1 Arsenal
We're into the last 15 minutes now.
Liverpool have scored 14 goals in this phase in the Premier League this season, and Arsenal 11.
Has either got another in them?
Liverpool 1-1 Arsenal
There was a slight bobble on the ball as Trent Alexander-Arnold hit the effort that smacked against the bar a few moments ago.
Could that prove a big moment in the title race?
Liverpool 1-1 Arsenal
Darwin Nunez meets this one but doesn't time his header at all and it goes comfortably over the bar.
Liverpool 1-1 Arsenal
The initial corner gets a little nick behind for another corner on the other side.
Liverpool 1-1 Arsenal
It is all about the full-backs at the moment.
Joe Gomez shifts onto his left foot and strikes towards goal and David Raya can only parry behind.

TAA simply HAS to score. Absolutely shocking.

No one can believe it in Anfield. I think it takes a slight bobble, just from the way it comes off his foot and goes high.
He should score. Great weight of pass from Salah.
Liverpool 1-1 Arsenal
AND AGAIN! Trent Alexander-Arnold this time.
Liverpool are five on two - no joke - as Mohamed Salah carries them forward with a counter-attack.
He releases for Alexander-Arnold at the right time but his effort crashes back off the bar with David Raya beaten.
Liverpool have to score there.
Liverpool 1-1 Arsenal
Stephen Warnock
Former England and Liverpool defender on BBC Radio 5 Live
He does pick up some lovey positions, Trossard. He is not going to be hugging the line. he is going to wander and pull Konate out and also try and get close to Gabriel Jesus as well. He's going to try and alter the way they attack this Liverpool backline.
Liverpool 1-1 Arsenal
Off the post!
Harvey Elliott cuts in from the right and strikes towards goal. It takes a nick off Gabriel before hitting the outside of the post.
Liverpool 1-1 Arsenal
As things stand Arsenal would be one point of clear of Liverpool and Aston Villa at the top of the Premier League on Christmas Day.
Spurs would be four behind in fourth and Man City, who will have played a game less, six behind.
This result might suit the chasing pack best.
