    • 90+3' That's it! Liverpool return to form in the league with a comprehensive victory at Molineux. Wolves booed off.

    • 75' Carroll has looked confident since scoring.
    • 74' Kuyt's deflected effort is tipped over the bar by Hennessey. Great reflexes.

    • 65' Adam spectacularly volleys a Kuyt cross over the bar as Liverpool dominate.
    • 64' A sublime turn in the middle of the pitch from Carroll who then carries the ball forwards but shoots well wide. Bellamy was not happy with the England striker's selfishness.

    • 62' Knightly and Jonsson have been replaced by Stephen Hunt and Sylvan Ebanks-Blake in a double Wolves change.
    • 61' It was really poor goalkeeping from Hennessey.

    • 51' Knightly's corner is well defended by Carroll before Enrique plays a lovely pass out to Bellamy.
    • 50' Hennessey comes out to clear the ball away from Kuyt. Alert goalkeeping.
    • 50' It's been a scrappy start to the second-half.
    • 49' Frimpong was writhing on the ground after Carroll ran into him, but he's ok.
    • 48' Ward looks like he will try and carry on.
    • 47' Stephen Ward is down injured after being caught on the top of his foot by Henderson.
    • 46' The second-half is underway. Let's hope it's as good as the first, except with goals.
    • 45+1' That's half-time. It's 0-0. Let me know your thoughts on Twitter, if you will. @ SCoggin_journo

    • 45' There will be one added minute.

    • 42' Kightly nicks the ball off Enrique but then can't keep it in play.
    • 41' Jarvis's cross is cleared away for a corner. The initial mistake was from Glen Johnson.

    • 38' Carroll flicks back Kuyt's deep cross but there is no one running in. Carroll did well there.

    • 36' Bellamy's free-kick is well held by Hennessey.
    • 35' Adam goes down under a challenge from Frimpong but referee Anthony Taylor again says no. It looked a penalty.
    • 34' STAT: Wolves have gone 19 games without a clean sheet.
    • 32' Good defending by Berra who intercepts a pass forward from Spearing to Henderson.
    • 31' Kuyt volleys a Carroll knock-down well over the bar.

    • 29' Knightly keeps running at Enrique and he wins a throw off the Spaniard.
    • 28' Edwards feeds Knightly who wins a corner of Enrique and Fletcher heads the resulting set-piece just over the bar!
    • 26' Knightly's cross is headed away by Agger. Great game this! End to end.
    • 25' Bellamy scythes down Fletcher on the touchline and gets a yellow card. The second Liverpool player in the book.
    • 24' Liverpool looking far more likely to score here, but it's still 0-0.
    • 23' Adam is then allowed to run a long way with the ball before shooting tamely wide from the edge of the area.

    • 20' Foley tries to slip in Edwards but his ball has too much weight on it, and Liverpool are back in possession.
    • 19' Bellamy toe-pokes a through ball wide. He almost caught the Wolves defence off guard there.
    • 18' Emmanuel Frimpong clears away a cross from Henderson. The Arsenal loanee has started the game well.
    • 17' Wayne Hennessey makes a good catch off a Kuyt cross.
    • 16' Jose Enrique's cross is far too long for Carroll and it drifts out for a goal kick.
    • 15' Wolves have grown into this game after a tentative start.
    • 14' Knightly's free-kick is flicked well over the bar by Edwards.
    • 13' Jarvis in full flow is brought down by Adam who is booked. Hard to know if it was a deliberate trip from Adam.
    • 12' Christophe Berra can consider himself fortunate not to have given away a penalty agaisnt Johnson in the first five minutes.
    • 11' David Edwards goes close as he forces a good save from Pepe Reina after breaking into the area.

    • 6' Liverpool enjoying a lot of possession early doors, as Charlie Adam finds Henderson with a fine pass.

    • 4' STAT: Liverpool have won just once in their last six league games.
    • 3' Carroll touches a Bellamy cross on to Kuyt but Roger Johnson's presence puts the Dutchman off and the ball runs out of play.
    • 3' Liverpool beat Wolves 2-1 at Anfield earlier in the season.
    • 2' Bellamy has started on the left for Liverpool, with Dirk Kuyt on the right.
