Liverpool are off the hook! Dreyer slaloms into space in the box and dinks it past Alisson, but into the side netting. So close for the away side!

ALMOST THE DOZEN? Liverpool have won each of their last 11 games played on this date – a run stretching back to 1973.

Shaqiri with a couple of stepovers and a lovely slalom as he dances towards goal, but a last-ditch challenge denies him the chance to pull the trigger.

A bit more on that landmark goal from Jota.
