Wijnaldum gets the game underway for Liverpool!
Hello and welcome to live coverage of the Champions League quarter-final second leg between Liverpool and Real Madrid at Anfield!
Madrid breezed past Liverpool in the first leg with a 3-1 home win last Tuesday and they come into this game unbeaten in their last 13 in all competitions (W11 D2), winning the last six on the bounce. Mohamed Salah got an important away goal for the Reds though and they've won their last two matches at Anfield, beating RB Leipzig and Aston Villa, after an eight-game winless run there (D2 L6).
LIVERPOOL STARTING XI (4-3-3): Alisson; Trent Alexander-Arnold, Nathaniel Phillips, Ozan Kabak, Andy Robertson; James Milner, Fabinho, Georginio Wijnaldum; Mohamed Salah, Roberto Firmino, Sadio Mane.
LIVERPOOL SUBS: Thiago Alcantara, Leighton Clarkson, Diogo Jota, Jake Cain, Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain, Xherdan Shaqiri, Adrian, Ben Davies, Konstantinos Tsimikas, Naby Keita, Rhys Williams, Harvey Davies.
REAL MADRID STARTING XI (4-3-3): Thibaut Courtois; Federico Valverde, Eder Militao, Nacho, Ferland Mendy; Luka Modric, Casemiro, Toni Kroos; Marco Asensio, Karim Benzema, Vinicius Junior.
REAL MADRID SUBS: Marvin Park, Isco, Andriy Lunin, Alvaro Odriozola, Rodrygo, Mariano, Marcelo, Sergio Arribas, Victor Chust, Diego Altube.
The teams are out on the pitch now, with kick-off just moments away.
Liverpool still need two goals if they want to go through, and they've looked good going forward, they just need to be more clinical with their chances. Despite creating few chances at the other end, Madrid have looked comfortable so far and Zidane will probably be hoping for more of the same after the break.
Madrid will meet Chelsea in the semi-final, with the first leg taking place two weeks from now. Their attention turns back to the LaLiga title race now and their match against Getafe at the weekend. Liverpool's Champions League run is over and next up for them is Leeds United in the Premier League on Monday.
