    105+1: TAA gives Havertz a little push off the ball and they put their heads together. Elliott also pushes the Chelsea man. The ref sorts it out by giving Havertz and TAA cards. Elliott is also lucky not to see a card. Totally unnecessary.

    Chalobah is back and there is no punishment. How that wasn't at least a yellow is baffling. i thought it was a red.
  • 60 '
    Keita catches Chalobah with his studs in a very uncomfortable area and I think that's a red card. The ref has given nothing, for now and Chalobah is getting treatment.

    HT: Chelsea 0-0 Liverpool!! Half-time at Wembley and it's been an exciting first period. Chelsea started well and Pulisic was denied from close range. Liverpool then picked up and Mendy denied both Keita and Mane within seconds, but Chelsea then finished well and Mount should've put the Blues ahead right on HT. This could go either way. Back shortly!
  • 45'
    One added minute.
  • 45 '
    What a miss by Mount!!! Pulisic runs down the middle before passing to Havertz, he than gives to Mount in the middle who misses from less than 10 yards out! Should've scored.
