He's just a little late to it, Diaz. He's ended up hitting his knee and that could be the end of his evening.

It looks like it was just an impact injury, which is a good sign.

Liverpool winger Luis Diaz is down holding his knee after a clash with Bukayo Saka.

He committed the foul, he's come off worse.

No. It's too long from Declan Rice.

Darwin Nunez and Ryan Gravenberch are preparing to come on for Liverpool.

Martin Odegaard is felled by Endo, who is already on a booking.

A crossing opportunity for Arsenal from the free-kick. Can they make it count?

There's the danger that Arsenal possess.

Saka in the one-on-one situation and he drives a dangerous ball across the face of goal. Liverpool do well to get it away, but that is where Arsenal can be dangerous.

Mickey: Zinchenko has lost the ball 5 times already in the second half in the Arsenal half. Surely Arteta has to cut his losses and take him off.

Arsenal seem to have got some composure back again.

They stroke the ball around really nice before Bukayo Saka runs at Joe Gomez and drills a brilliant cross along the six-yard box.

Kai Havertz and Gabriel Martinelli are flat-footed though and don't read the potential opportunity.

There's the chance for them to do so again but Arsenal manage to play out this time.

The ball ends up with Gabriel Jesus in the area but he snatches at a shot and it ends up going out for a throw-in on the far side.

There were no runners into the box for the dragged effort.

Liverpool have won possession back four times in Arsenal's defensive third in the opening 10 minutes of the second half.

Welcome to the "washing machine" as Mikel Arteta called Anfield.

That would have been a gem. He sends it round Saliba and tries to find that far corner.

I don't know if David Raya would have had it covered or not but that is great play by Joe Gomez.

So so close!

Joe Gomez jinks in from the left and curls towards goal. He sets it outside the post but there isn't quite enough curl on the effort.

It gets a big round of applause from Jurgen Klopp, who has a huge smile on his face as Anfield lets out a huge roar.

Wasted opportunity again from Liverpool. They have had two chances there and not been able to find the finish.

That was a huge wasted opportunitty from Diaz. Salah finds him well and he just snatches at it.

Neither manager will be happy with the start to this half. They will feel it is far too open.

Arsenal look shaky in possession in this half, I'll be honest.

It is Oleksandr Zinchenko this time that is caught and Mohamed Salah looks to find a pass but it is cut out.

On Sky Sports, Gary Neville has just said Zinchecko is "a liability". He has struggled tonight.

Correct, Paul.

The tournament is due to start on 13 January, with Egypt's first game the following day.

We're end to end again.

Arsenal look to break as Bukayo Saka sends Gabriel Martinelli down the left.

The Brazil winger gets past the centre back but a big long leg wins the ball back.
