Ben: Those chances are what differentiates Nunez from top tier strikers. They should be hitting the back of the net every time.

Fulham substitute Harry Wilson gets a yellow card on his return to his former ground and can't argue after bundling Curtis Jones to the ground.

Four minutes of injury time to go.

Massive save from Bernd Leno. Absolutely massive.

He's just thrown himself at Darwin Nunez, who was six yards out and hit the ball on the volley. Crucial, crucial save for Fulham.

Bernd Leno is keeping Fulham's hopes alive here. This is another excellent save to deny Darwin Nunez's jumping volley from the edge of the six-yard area.

It has been a much better match in the second half.

This might just be Fulham deciding 'we'll take this', they've dropped into a 4-5-1, maybe they are thinking, 'we'll take our chances at home.'

Fulham's Sasa Lukic, who has only been on a few minutes, replacing the injured Harrison Reed, gets a booking after catching Darwin Nunez.

Tambuwal: Curtis Jones is the most improved player in EPL this season.

The chances are coming for Darwin Nunez. This is a good effort, on the turn from an tight angle and it would've crept in under the bar had it not been for Bernd Leno flinging his arm up to make a vital save to stop it going 3-1.

Wave after wave of Liverpool attack, they are looking very dangerous, particularly down that right hand side with Diogo Jota and Darwin Nunez. Those two substitutes have made the difference for Liverpool.

Fulham are a little bit all over the place at the moment, can't seem to find a settled formation and structure.

Fulham, who missed a great chance to go 2-0 up through Bobby de Cordova-Reid when Andreas Pereira was waiting for a tap-in, are now hanging on to just a one-goal deficit.

Darwin Nunez fails to convert a header as Liverpool push for more goals.

When Liverpool play their way, under the lights at Anfield, in a semi-final, I can't see anyone living with them.

They have taken a little bit of time to reach the standards that they expect but in a five minute spell they have blown Fulham away.

Good football, endeavour, organisation and precision.

Liverpool are now looking to take the tie away from Fulham and Diogo Jota runs along the penalty area line, shoots left-footed but can't keep it down and blasts it over the crossbar. It would've been some goal.

Darwin Nunez tries his luck with a free-kick, he gets it over the wall, but it doesn't drop in time and is over the top, although Bernd Leno probably had it covered any way.

A double change for Fulham. Harry Wilson, who moved from Liverpool to Fulham in 2022 after only a handful of senior appearances for the Reds, is on as is Tom Cairney.

Off go goalscorer Willian and pantomime villain Andreas Pereira.

Diogo Jota down the left-hand side, forcing Darwin Nunez to make a run outside him.

Drops it into Nunez, who fires a low ball across the box. Cody Gakpo gets across his defender as all good strikers do, and he smashes the ball into the back of the net. Great cut back and finish.

Edge of the box, Curtis Jones just trying his luck.

Took a shot from about 25 yards, huge deflection off Tosin Adarabioyo. Keeper was going one way and the deflection sends the ball the other.

Nothing Bernd Leno can do about it.
