    • Thailand
    • Liverpool
    • 90+4' That's that! The final whistle goes and Thailand hold on for a 1-1 draw against Liverpool in Bangkok. Thanks for joining me!
    • 90+3' Winothai dives in recklessly on Mascherano and gets a booking.
    • 90+1' Johnson cuts inside from the left and lets fly...his shot is JUST PAST THE POST!!!
    • 90' Reid is screaming at his players from the touchline. He'll be very pleased with their efforts tonight.
    • 89' Torres goes through the back of Thonglao and gets a booking.
    • 85' The rain is coming down hard in Bangkok as Thailand make yet more substitutions.
    • 83' Torres once again tries to go alone, but when he runs out of space he slides a ball to Voronin...who's offside.
    • 80' First touch for Torres, and he decides to go straight at goal, gliding past one challenge and shooting low. His effort is comfortably saved.
    • 78' Here comes TORRES!
    • 75' Pacheco almost pounces on a sloppy backpass, but his first touch is too strong.
    • 72' GOAL!!!! Thailand are level!! Sutee plays a wonderful one-two and shoots across Cavaleiri to send his finish in off the post. Superb goal.
    • 70' Liverpool are camped in the Thailand half...the ball falls to Spearing and he pulls a low shot past the post from just outside the box.
    • 67' Babel looks to find Pacheco inside the Thailand box, but his ball is too strong. Pacheco is a busy little player and looks to have a real enthusiasm for hard work.
    • 65' Voronin is caught offside trying to steal a yard and get in on goal. The game's gone a little flat.
    • 64' Fernando Torres is warming up. When his face is shown on the big screen a huge roar goes up.
    • 62' Mascherano cracks one from long range and draws a punched clearance from the Thailand keeper.
    • 60' Spearing is seeing alot of the ball. Liverpool have dominated possesion in the second half, but they are yet to create a meaningful opening.
    • 58' Jay Spearing with a lovely crossfield pass to Voronin, who crosses from the left to the far post...Pacheco cushions the ball back, but it goes straight to a defender and Thailand clear.
    • 56' El Zhar hobbles off and is replaced by Arbeloa.
    • 54' Skrtel is unable to continue and Dossena will come on in his place. It looks he's suffered a hamstring pull. Not good news for Liverpool. El Zhar is also struggling.
    • 52' Nabil El Zhar is another of the new arrivals in the second half. He goes for an ambitious 25-yard overhead kick and ends up taking a knock on the knee.
    • 51' "Come and go!" says Rafa Benitez from the touchline. It's not clear who to, but I thought you'd like to know. Liverpool are zipping around very nicely and have started the second half with real purpose.
    • 49' Pacheco tries some fancy footwork on the edge of the Thailand box, but he ends up beating himself.
    • 47' Voronin and Pacheco are on up front. Mascherano and Skrtel enter the midfield. And Glen Johnson comes on at left back.
    • 46' Off we go with the second half and it looks as though Liverpool have made sweeping changes.
    • 45' And that's half-time folks! Apologies if the commentary is a touch sparce, we're having a few technical problems.
    • 42' Plessis jumps well at a free-kick, but he sends his header over the bar.
    • 38' Agger wins the ball on the edge of his own box and absolutely hammers it forward. Very agricultural that.
    • 36' Carragher goes through the back of Thonglao and Thailand have a free-kick 25 yards out and central...THONGLAO SHOOTS OVER THE BAR!
    • 34' Great run forward from Degen, who drives past a couple of challenges before eventually running out of steam.
    • 31' Babel and Kuyt link up well, but the latter can't quite keep the ball in play and Thailand win a goal-kick.
    • 29' Babel is really srapping on the edge of Thailand box and his hard work opens up a chance for KUYT!!! But his low shot skids past the post.
    • 26' Kuyt dummies for Nemeth, but the striker goes to ground all too easily and Thailand clear.
    • 23' Cavalieri rushes out to clear his lines and does well.
    • 18' Ngog drives forward and tries to release Nemeth with the outside of the boot...but his pass is a touch strong.
    • 15' Liverpool are playing at a fairly relaxed pace. Jamie Carragher is seeing alot of the ball at the back and spraying it around casually.
    • 10' Thailand respond well to going behind. Reid's men look comfortable on the ball and are going at Liverpool down the flanks.
    • 6' GOAL!!! Liverpool lead. Ryan Babel runs onto a neat through ball and slips a low finish into the bottom corner. GREAT START FOR LIVERPOOL!
    • 1' Away we go! Liverpool are in their traditional all red, with Thailand in blue.
    • - Still we wait for kick-off! The players are out on the pitch now though and we should be away shortly.
    • - Another Liverpool story worth reading concerns midfielder Javier Mascherano, who starts on the bench tonight. Mascherano 'tired' of England
    • - The kick-off has been put back 20 minutes to 14:20 BST - 20:20 in Bangkok.
    • - Thailand are of course managed by Peter Reid, who came up against Liverpool a good number of times in the blue of Everton.
    • - While we're waiting for kick-off, why not read the latest news on Steven Gerrard's court case
    • - 70,000 in the stadium and nearly all of them are signing 'Hey Jude' at the top of their lungs. Thailand LOVES its Premier League football, so you can be sure the atmosphere will be BLOCKBUSTER this afternoon.
