Steven Gerrard picked Sami Hyypia out with a superb cross that the Finn headed wide, Gregory Vignal saw a goal-bound shot blocked by his own team-mate, Ryan Babel and, late on, the energetic Martin Kelly drilled a shot wide from a narrow angle. It took Chelsea until the second period to regsiter a shot on target when Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink's free-kick was palmed away by Sander Westerveld, before Liverpool took the lead after 55 minutes when Florent Sinama-Pongelle's cross was headed in superbly by Peter Crouch.
Sadly only 17 minutes before he went off with what looked like a pulled hamstring.
Kelly looked good going forward and his first-half cross was applauded by Gerrard.
Jay Spearing (8).
Had the game's first shot after four minutes and was perhaps the sharpest Liverpool player.
Only managed about 20 minutes, but set up the first Liverpool goal with a superb cross to the back post.
Put in the cross for Crouch's second goal and, from a right wing position, looked sharp.
