Riise with a nice low pass to Babel but he dribbles too much.

Pennant cross met by Kuyt with a flying header but James makes a point-blank save to deny the Dutchman.

who scored & when?

[bigfooty]

Still 0-0, been all us really but quality lacking in the final third.

Kuyt trys to play in Babel but Big Sol eases him out of it and the ball runs through to James.

[bigfooty]

Riise gives away a foul right on the edge of the box, could have been a penalty, Nugent causing us a few problems with his pace and movement.

Torres, Carra and Gerrard warming up on the sidelines to cheers from the crowd.

Pompy free kick is drilled low by Taylor, Babel blocks it in the wall.

[Flake]

Not everything is coming off, but the forward movement is much much better, the ball being played to feet quickly and a lot of the players changing position to lose their markers.
I'm quite impressed.

[bigfooty]

We waste a good break, Pennant dwells on the ball and by time he trys to play it in the defence is set.

Bambi just nailed the lineo with a sliding challenge.

Bloody hell Bigfooty, fair play for the updates! Are you actually watching the game or just constantly typing?

Clanger from us as riise is caught deep to allow Pompy to break through beating the offside trap. O'Neil it is through 1on1 with Reina but Pepe comes out quickly and makes the block.

[bigfooty]

Chance to break, the pass goes wide to Kuyt but yet again the play in the final third is poor and slow and we don't even fashion a chance.
