Missed this thread.

You can pay £4.99 for the privilege of streaming it from Joymo*

*Me neither

Hope we win and stop Liverpool's dream of the quintuple.

No Costello in our team. Assume another seemingly exciting prospect injured?

He's been on the bench for the first team the past 3 games, think he's with the seniors for the remainder of the season.

Liverpool started the better but we’ve just had a chance but keeper denied McGlynn

Game stopped for an injury to McGlynn.

First team

Looked concerning but he’s come back on

Good. Have Liverpool got a strong team or mainly youngsters

Best move of the game ended with Liverpool keeper saving well from Thompson

Two mins stoppage time, still 0-0

Half time. Doing ok against a strong team. Still 0-0.

I've paid for the (not very good) stream.
The football on show really isn't very good.
Gomez-Mancini probably has had more touches than any other player but little end product.
Thompson looked dangerous on occasions.

Second half underway

49 mins: pen for Liverpool

Come on Burnley!!!

50 mins: Still 0-0, Waller saves pen.

Good stuff. Correct decision by ref ?

I think so

McGlynn clear down right but hit side netting

Nearly in front. Ball in from Mancini, but defender got in to get it out for a corner.

59 mins: Burnley 0 Liverpool 1, good finish following free kick on right.

Sounds a good game.

Thanks for the updates

Mancini just set Tucker up with a great run down the left & cross but Tucker screwed the shot wide.

Come on Burnley Come on Burnley Come on Burnley

Liverpool just missed a very good chance

75 mins: Trialist on for Helm. The trialist is Seb Thompson from Derby.

About 6 mins to go. Equaliser not looking likely.

Just one chance!
UTC

Hope that’s the commentators curse

Stoppage time - 3 mins

Finished 1-0

Cheers for the updates.

Decent effort by the sounds of it

Not particularly.
not sure that Liverpool were a lot better, poor game in my opinion.
We looked a bit tired.

Must have at one point had big things expected of him. At 13 at Liverpool he already had a sponsorship deal with Adidas

I thought we did well tonight against a top team and on a pitch that is hardly suitable for good football.

Pick out for Mancini too, that’s the best I’ve seen him.

Yes - he always looked most likely to set things up. Thought the lads grafted really well - we still had a couple of good chances but they held on to the ball much better than us.

No complaints - their 2 centre backs were outstanding I thought both in the air and clever distribution down the wings.

Felt for the catering lady trying to sell off the pies at a pound each with little or no take up when she walked round the ground.

One of those centre backs was Rhys Williams who has played nine Premier League games now, but both were excellent.
