    Time:90'
    • Standard Liège
    • Olympiacos
    • 90+3 Peep...peep...peep!! It's all over. What an important win for Standard Liege. But what a potential disaster for Olympiacos. The next two games for both sides will be hugely important. See how tonight's game affects Champions League Group H
    • 90' SUB STANDARD LIEGE: Jovanovic is replaced by Angeli.
    • 88' GOAL FOR STANDARD LIEGE!!! That will wrap it up. Mbokani's shot was well saved but Jovanovic was follwing up to put his header into an empty net.
    • 86' SUB STANDARD LIEGE: A standing ovation for Carcela-Gonzalez who is replaced by Goreux.
    • 84' Dudu continues to drive Olympiacos forward but his strikers aren't getting free of their markers. They need a goal. And quickly.
    • 84' Jovanovic tricks his way into the Olympiacos box but is out-foxed by Olof Mellberg. Clever defending.
    • 82' It's become a tired game. The Greek side are pushing for an equaliser but when they give the ball away Standard aren't good enough to do anything with it.
    • 78' SUB OLYMPIACOS: Giannis Papadopoulos and Stoltidis come on for Avraam Papadopoulos and Gonzalez.
    • 77' Time is running out for Olympiacos and they're starting to throw men forward. If Standard hold their nerve they could be in here.
    • 74' Mangala nearly makes it 2-0 for the home side. He beats Nikopolidis to a corner but his header bounces wide from six yards out.
    • 73' Oscar Gonzalez is cautioned for an outrageous dive. Shocking play-acting from the Olympiacos forward.
    • 70' ...but it comes to nothing. What a waste.
    • 69' Interesting. Maresca is brought down on the edge of the box. Olympiacos have a dangerous free-kick...
    • 67' Standard are beginning to drop deep again in defence. Olympiacos don't need a second invitation to attack and are piling forward.
    • 64' Standard's Eliaquim Mangala receives the game's fourth caution.
    • 61' Olof Mellberg nearly makes up for his first-half howler. The Olympiacos centre-back found himself on the end of a cross eight yards out but his volley was straight at Bolat. Could be a cruical miss.
    • 60' Standard's Camozzato is cautioned. Quite rightly too.
    • 57' Olympiacos nearly grab an equaliser. Enzo Maresca hurls himself at a right wing cross but his header flies over the bar.
    • 55' The Greek team suddenly seem aware this game is in danger of slipping away from them. Their coach, Brazilian legend Zico, is waving them forward.
    • 51' Olympiacos need to buck their ideas up. With Arsenal leading against AZ Alkmaar the Greek side may have to rely on getting a result against the Gunners in their final group game.
    • 45' SUB STANDARD LIEGE: Mohamed Sarr is replaced by Victor Ramos.
    • - The second half is off and running.
    • 45'+3 That's half-time. The initial 30 minutes was forgettable but the final 15 minutes were much better. Standard took the lead and should have added a second. Olympiacos will need to dig deep to get anything from this.
    • 45' There will be three minutes of added time.
    • 43' SUB OLYMPIACOS: Disaster for the Greek side. Their main threat Luciano Galletti has been replaced by Fetfatzidis.
    • 41' It's all Standard suddenly. This time Jovanovic narrowly pulls a shot wide when well placed on the edge of the box.
    • 40' OFF THE POST!!! Standard's Carcela-Gonzalez nearly doubles his side's advantage with a sweet strike. The ball sat up 25 yards out and his left-footed effort rattled the woodwork...
    • 38' It's got a bit untidy. Standard appear a little shocked to be in front and keep pumping the ball upfield. Strange.
    • 34' Well, that goal certainly woke me up. Now Olympiacos have to come out and break a stubborn Standard defence down. Intriguing stuff.
    • 31' GOAL FOR STANDARD LIEGE!!! 1-0! Where did that come from?? Olof Mellberg misses a straight punt down the middle leaving Dieumerci Mbokani a clear run on goal. He makes no mistake in beating Nikopolidis from 12 yards.
    • 29' It's all go now...Galletti swings a cross into the box and Bolat makes a proper mess of it but it dribbles out for a corner...
    • 28' ...Standard then create the first chance of the match. Jovanovic slipped into the box, turned and squared it to Mbokani who calmly stuck it into row Z.
    • 27' Standar's Ricardo Rocha is rightly cautioned for a high challenge on Galletti...
    • 25' Olympiacos's Carcela-Gonzalez needs a stretcher now after falling awkwardly.
    • 20' Caution for Dudu of Olympiacos for a pretty tame challenge.
    • 18' Standard are trying to get their midfield starlet Axel Witsel on the ball but he has little support in front of him.
    • 17' It's fair to say the referee is having more impact on the game than Standard's forward line who are very....standard.
    • 15' Still no clear-cut chance for either side. Standard's blanket defence is stifling the Greek side who show no signs of breaking through...yet.
    • 13' The game has settled down a bit now. Standard seem quite content to soak up any pressure while Olympiacos are definitely the more threatening.
    • 10' Now, I'm no expert on grass but this pitch has certainly caught a few players out. Lots of them tripping over after their studs appear to stick in the surface.
    • 9' After some lengthy treatment Maresca is back on and running around like a lamb in the spring. Bless him.
    • 7' It looks like Maresca may have caught his studs in the turf and twisted his knee. Ouch.
    • 6' Another strong tackle in midfield sees Olympiacos playmaker Enzo Maresca clattered to the ground. Looks like he'll need a stretcher....
    • 4' The Belgians are putting plenty into the early tackles with the ref letting a lot of contact go.
    • 2' Olympiacos get the first corner which is cleared...and Felipe clears the danger.
    • 1' Standard have started with five at the back - which seems a little strange as they're the home side.
    • - We're off and underway in Belgium.
    • - Referee: Nicola Rizzoli (Italy)
    • - Olympiacos: Nikopolidis, Galitsios, Zewlakow, Avraam Papadopoulos, Mellberg, Raul Bravo, Galletti, Dudu, Maresca, Oscar, Mitroglou. Subs: Pardo, Domi, Stoltidis, Ioannnis, Ledesma, Pantos, Giannis Papadopoulos
    • - Standard Liege: Bolat, Camozzato, Sarr, Felipe, Rocha, Carcela-Gonzalez, Mangala, Witsel, De Camargo, Mbokani, Jovanovic. Subs: Van Hout, Goreux, Ramos, Dufer, Gershon, Angeli, Yagan
    • - With group leaders Arsenal at home to third-placed AZ Alkmaar should Olympiacos win they can all but guarantee their qualification from Group H.
    • - Olympiacos have won only two of the 35 Champions League away games they have played, losing 26. Ouch! The Greek giants lost 5-1 to Anderlecht on their only previous visit to Belgium in the 1974-75 European Cup.
    • - Standard are without a win in their last six European games, losing four. The Belgium club's only previous home game against a Greek club came more than 30 years ago when they beat AEK Athens 4-1 in the 1977-78 UEFA Cup. Oh, for a repeat this evening.
    • - Evening all. Standard Liege will be looking to lift themselves off the bottom of Group H tonight with a win.
