That was very nearly another embarrassing moment for Liverpool.

A ball over the top finds Oli McBurnie who thinks he's through and Ozan Kabak's attempted challenge sees the ball roll past Adrian into the net.

An own goal? It won't count. The offside flag is up. Sighs of relief from the visitors.

Aaron Ramsdale has been the busiest man on the pitch. But Liverpool remain without a goal and Sheffield United are giving this everything.

Aaron Ramsdale is off his line quickly to belt the ball clear before Curtis Jones can pounce after a quickly taken throw-in eventually lands at the feet of the midfielder. Ramsdale went in where it hurts. Good goalkeeping.

Adrian has done well - he's not played a lot of football and he's made two really good saves there to give him some confidence. One from the in swinging cross from John Fleck, he punches it away and then the second phase is defended really well.

It's all a little bit scrappy. The home side are making their physical presence felt but Liverpool are guilty of giving away too many silly free-kicks.

One big chance for Roberto Firmino. Not much else so far.

That's more like it.

Liverpool get their first glimpse of goal through Roberto Firmino who really should score but Aaron Ramsdale does well to block his attempt with his legs.

Last season Firmino would have scored that with his eyes closed.
