Welcome to LIVE coverage of the Europa League game between Liverpool and Zenit St Petersburg from Anfield.

Neto brings down Suarez around 30 yards out. He can have a dig from here...

Denisov with a decent ball to launch Hulk into the box but Reina shepherds it behind. Now Suarez is in on the right but Hubocan makes a good tackle.

Downing with a super ball to release Suarez but it skims away from him and away! Now Henderson on the left finds an overlapping Enrique but his cross is blocked. He has a second chance to deliver but straight into Malafeev's midriff.

Liverpool laying camp down the left, with Shelvey warming up.

Liverpool probing and probing, Hulk the only man in white in their half now...

Gerrard with a cross from the right that hits Denisov. Corner. Liverpool shooting at the Kop now! The corner is cleared though and Zenit could break... Hulk on the right, he skins Enrique but Lucas slides in superbly.

Lucas with a wicked long ball that sends Suarez in but it skims off his boot and to Malafeev!

Liverpool bay for handball after it bounces up off Hubocan's arm, but he had it by his side and the ref waves it away! Now Suarez drives in a low shot but tipped wide by Malafeev for a corner!

Enrique with a surging run down the left, good cross aimed for Downing but Hubocan nods clear.

Gerrard sends Johnson in down the right, he skins Neto but Criscito slides in to put to touch.

Wild effort from Agger miles over. No need for that. Downing is limping after that previous chase and tackle.

Downing cuts in from the right on to his left but Criscito blocks the shot. Zenit break but Downing does really well to track back and tackle Criscito.

The second half is underway. Hubocan goes back to centre-back, Criscito to play left back.

ZENIT DOUBLE SUB: Fayzulin and Criscito come on for Danny and the injured Lombaerts.

Well, taking the first leg out of consideration, this is a cracking cup tie now. Reckon Liverpool can do it? Let me know what you think on Twitter by following @Reda_Eurosport.

Half time and Liverpool lead 2-1 on the night, but trail 3-2 on aggregate and need two more without reply.

Liverpool have a free-kick on the left and Gerrard swings it in but Malefeev gathers at the second time of asking.

Downing swings in a corner but Carragher and Henderson fly in and the latter fouls the keeper.

Poor Lombaerts is stretchered off. Not sure what happened there, looks like a knee problem...

Liverpool need two more goals now. Zenit are NOT playing well, so it's doable! Meanwhile a visiting player is down, Lombaerts getting treatment...

GOAL LIVERPOOL! Joe Allen at the second attempt after Malafeev saved his header. Superb cross from Jose Enrique after a one-two with Henderson. Game on!
