Andriy Voronin missed from the penalty spot at the Olympic Stadium as Liverpool drew with Hertha Berlin in our fourth pre-season friendly of the 2008/09 season.

Here’s all the action from our live commentary service:

90? The referee ends a dreary game which ends 0-0.

90? Dossena wins a corner after good play by Benayoun on the left wing but it comes to nothing once again as both sides look resigned in accepting a draw.

86? 51,641 is the official attendance for tonights game.

83? Three corners for Liverpool in quick succession, all taken by Benayoun, amount to nothing as Hertha dig in late on in the game.

80? Voronin breaks through the Hertha backline and chips the ball towards Dossena at the far post but the Hertha defence recovers well.

76? Stein is invited to shoot from distance after the defence sat back but his curling shot went just wide of Martins goal.

75? Liverpool substitutions: Leto and Pacheco are replaced by Kuyt and Spearing.

73? Pantelic strikes from long range but it is deflected wide of Martins goal.

66? Liverpool substitutions: Pennant, Cavalieri and Plessis are replaced by Hobbs, Benayoun and Martins.

63? Cavalieri saves well low down at his right post after fierce header from another Hertha attack.

50? Voronin will take the penalty for Liverpool.  SAVED! Fantastic save by the Hertha Berlin ‘keeper who stretched well to his right.

50? PENALTY! Kaka pulled down Voronin in the penalty area with the referee pointing straight to the spot.

45? Liverpool Substitutions: Carragher, Insua, Darby and Agger are replaced by Degen, Skrtel, Hyypia and Dossena.

45? Hertha get the second-half underway.

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.

10? Pennant goes down after making a run from midfield, he hobbles back to his feet.

6? Hertha strike from long range but it fades away just wide.

5? Liverpool passing the ball around confidently, maintaining the majority of possession so far.

2? Liverpool start off brightly using Pennant out on the right.

1? Liverpool get the game underway.
