Here’s the match action so far:

45? The referee blows for half-time.  The score remains 0-0 at the Olympic Stadium.

42? Great defending by Stephen Darby who made a great tackle to prevent a one-on-one with Cavalieri, Carragher clears the danger with a header out for a corner which is defended well by Plessis.

40? Berlin hold posession and get a shot on goal but it rolls harmlessly to Cavalieri.  Liverpool need to keep their wits about them if they are to get a result from this game as Hertha Berlin begin to take control of the game.

39? Long searching ball from Leto almost finds Pacheco after beating Kaka to the ball but it bounces too hard to the Berlin ‘keeper.

35? Hertha break quickly but strike fiercly into the side-netting.  Another warning to the Liverpool back line who look a little static tonight.

31? Liverpool get a corner after a good run on the right wing by Pacheco.  Poor play by Liverpool as play breaks down.

24? Approaching halfway through the first half, both teams looking to play attacking football but neither ‘keeper has had much to do so far.

14? Mascherano drives from just outside the box but it flies straight into Row Z.
