Liverpool v Fulham Match Thread

[bigfooty]

All the play down our left at the moment.

[bigfooty]

Voronin wrestled to the ground by Murphy as Crouch made a run in behind. Free-kick about 35 yards out. Gerrard over it. Plays it short to Sami who rifles in a low shot that Niemi tips around the corner.

[Dan]

Great effort Sami

[bigfooty]

Gerrard corner, poor, cleared by Murphy at near post.

Gerrard gets it back, another poor cross cleared. Sami fouls as Fulham break.

hahaha get in sami!!

[bigfooty]

Crouch pulls out wide, wins a corner.

Gerrard to take, deep, cleared, Riise trys first time but blocked.

Pressure kept on, Voronin with a deep cross that Sami gets at the back post but the header is a bit tame and drifts past the post.

[bigfooty]

Voronin heavily involved early on, almost played in Gerrard with another back-heel 1-2 there.

Yossi been a bit quiet in first 10 minutes.

[bigfooty]

Voronin clattered into, no free-kick.

Mascherano almost picks out Riise with a first-time ball but Ginger is given offside. He wasn't.

[tommyg]

voronin should have won a free-kick from that shove

boring

****ing crap stream today. I am trying to connect via Sopcast and two of the channels are offline...

[Sprouty]

Should have scored that.

[bigfooty]

Aurelio comes infield but overruns the ball. None of Fulham's team was here for the 4-0 loss last season.

Crouch wins a throw down the right.

Yossi's first touch is exceptional, plays in Arbeloa behind but his cross is a poor one, behind Crouch and Voronin, comes to Gerrard who curls it just over.

[bigfooty]

Fulham's direct style almost pays off, Kuqi beats Sami and it drops to Murphy who cracks a volley on-target, Pepe claws it away.

[tommyg]

Gerrard should have perhaps found the target at least there
