LIVERPOOL 0-0 BAYERN MUNICH
FT: And that's all. Bayern Munich leave Anfield with a well deserved point against Liverpool Jurgen Klopp.
Complete reaction to come.
93: You think it's frustrating? Barcelona had 22 shots against Lyon tonight. Still no one in France.
92: Trent throws a speculative balloon forward and Manuel Neuer calmly lowers it with his chest. Does not seem like it's going to happen people.
90: Four minutes of extra time. Bayern wants to change a few more minutes with Rafinha for Gnabry.
89: Hummels slams at the back of Orbi and gives Liverpool a free-kick on the right edge. Trent's delivery flies over everyone inside the area and resets on the other side of the field.

88: Big save! A huge chance for Liverpool to die while Sadio Mane stops to reach the center of Robertson. He may be heading for the post, but Neuer still picks it up. Matip can not keep the resulting wedge.
Lord! How on earth does he still have a game? The former president of Swansea, Renato Sanches, who was frankly terrible, replaces Rodriguez.
85: Jurgen Klopp, aggravated, throws his arms to the sky, frustrated, while Joel Matip flames from afar. Just a Liverpool shot tonight.
82: Andrew Robertson sees his name illuminated when he flies on a … half-volley orbit. The back could not reduce his efforts and Bayern took forever to take the bet.
Franck Ribery and Kingsley Coman. If anyone knows how to spoil a party, it's Franck Ribery.
80: OK, the last ten minutes here at Anfield. I guess a scoreless draw would not be the worst result for Jurgen Klopp's team – but the pressure of victory in Munich will be immense.
77: This is Milly! James Milner replaces Naby Keita for the last 13 minutes. Divock Origi replaces Roberto Firmino, who did not have his most productive evening. Maybe still feeling the effects of his virus.
75: Mohamed Salah cuts inside the right channel, but Georginio Wijnaldum interposes and the risk goes begging. I see James Milner and Divock Origi warming up on the sideline …
73: Sule puts his side under unnecessary pressure by placing behind Trent's free-kick free-kick for a corner. He is immediately released by a terrible delivery of Salah.

70: I hope to have the egg on the face by announcing the following: I can not see where the lens comes from. Watch a goalless draw all day.
67: Jordan Henderson is down after being caught by Thiago and needs treatment. It will continue well.
Lyon remain 0-0 in Barcelona in the other clashes of the Champions League tonight.
65: Growing anxiety around the stadium now. I think most Liverpool supporters were worried about their improvised defense tonight – but it was the attackers who struggled.
63: Liverpool must breathe a little rhythm, cunning and power in this display, because Bayern Munich seems extremely comfortable.
60: Whoosh! Serge Gnabry lets fly his left counter but he flies over the crossbar. If Alisson had to fend for herself.
59: What is Mohamed Salah doing ?! Naby Keita finds Andrew Robertson's overlap the second time. The back sees his stabbed effort bouncing off Gnabry and heading towards Salah at the last post. But instead of recycling the ball, it's overflowing with miles.
Jordan Henderson booked for firing Martinez.

57: Danger! Kingsley Coman enjoys the freedom of the left flank as a marker Bayern. He defeated Wijnaldum before finding Robert Lewandowski in the penalty area, which lined his back six yards. The Polish international seems to be spinning but Fabinho is taking up the challenge of skiing.
54: Bayern did exactly what they did at the start of the first half, it's to eliminate the sting of Liverpool.
Jurgen Klopp's players usually start fast, but they are mastered by a frustrated, intelligent and professional Bayern.
51: Lewandowski is involved … while he is committing a foul on Joel Matip. Trent Alexander-Arnold takes a free-kick that evokes everyone and bounces to score.
48: Liverpool starts the second half on the right foot. Wijnaldum recovers the ball from Martinez's feet before pbading a cross to Trent. He pierces the pbad to Salah but the Egyptian can not make her fall under her spell.
LIVERPOOL 0-0 BAYERN MUNICH
45: And we are back to Anfield. No change on the one hand and the other. Is not it strange that Roberto Lewandowski was silent? Very disconcerting actually …

Ron: Jordan Henderson gets a lot of unfair criticism. He was excellent tonight. Vital game of rupture, thoughtful distribution.
Johnny: Trying to explain how Liverpool did not score is like trying to explain climate change to Donald Trump.
Rachael: Liverpool shots seem to have a pretty common point with the back of a cow and a banjo.
Stable Rachael …

LIVERPOOL 0-0 BAYERN MUNICH
HT: Level at the break. Joel Matip had the two best chances on both sides of Bayern Munich.
Jurgen Klopp's team played well in form and starts, but a little more cunning in the last third is needed.
45: A lightning game between Salah and Wijnaldum releases Firmino. He reaches the front line and places a cross … but there is no red shirt to apply the finish. Where is Andy Carroll when you need him !?
44: Bayern almost stole their heads before the break. Gnabry (yes, the guy is not considered good enough for Arsenal) sends another excellent ball to the Lewandowski field center, but Matip takes charge of the ball away.
42: More like this. Much more like that of Liverpool. The crowd vibrates as Mohamed Salah and Roberto Firmino exchange beautiful pbades.
The Brazilian recovers the ball and pulls through the lens of Joel Matip, who pushes him away under pressure.

40: mane !! The Liverpool winger is showing such lack of coolness in front of goal, he is becoming infuriating.
A well-worked movement on the part of the Reds sees Naby Keita shooting in a narrow angle. His deviated effort goes to Mane, who takes it for the first time with an ambitious blow over his head. Wiiiiiiiiide.
38: Naughty tactics from Bayern Munich, which deliberately slows things down. Visitors win a corner and James Rodriguez takes forever to take it.
36: Handball? Off-side? What's a land got here ?!
Naby Keita's efforts are blocked by Sule, who makes contact with his arm on the way to the bridge. Barely deliberate though.
Anyway, the balloon blows its way to Sadio Mane, who runs away with Manuel Neuer. No matter how calm and it is 1-0 in Liverpool.
34: Georginio Wijnaldum has so far been the best performer in Liverpool. He was not afraid to carry the ball forward and choose one or two pbades. His last match is projected on a large scale on Robertson, who is hitting a cross that flies to the other side of the field.

32: Bayern Munich manager Niko Kovac gives Jurgen Klopp an air of tranquility this evening on the sidelines. He appeals every decision and has been warned by referee Gianluca Rocchi.
30: Joshua Kimmich has booked! He squeezes Mane's ankles and misses the return leg in Munich. Huge blow for visitors.
27: Bayern will be extremely pleased with the way things started here at Anfield. They were compact and resilient at the back – which saw Liverpool trying to force things a fraction.
24: Sadio Mane cleverly draws Sule on a foul of the signature. Bayern cancels the initial delivery, but Trent is sensitive to rebound when he sends a cross center to the last post. Salah arrives at the right moment but his head is a few meters wide.
21: Naby Keita rebels and turns into a state of confusion just outside the Bayern penalty area. He decides he's tired of trying a daring 20-meter aerial kick … I think you can imagine how that happened.
18: Close! Liverpool is fortunate to be level.
Alisson is surprised by about seven years before seeing his bad clearance blocked by Robert Lewandowski. He finds Kingsley Coman, who slips into the net.

15: Should he be 1-0 in Liverpool? Yes. Jordan Henderson plays a sublime ball to find Mohamed Salah, who has snuck between the two defenders of Bayern. The Egyptian takes out his shoe but is not connected to any venom.
Luck! Gnabry makes a superb center from the right on Lewandowski, but Matip almost deflected the ball to his own net. Fortunately for him, Alisson saved with his foot. He knew absolutely NOTHING about that one!
13: Thiago catches the heels of Wijnaldum as the midfielder advances. Trent delivers the right channel but Sule puts him safe.
ten: No luck in the first ten minutes. It's as if two heavyweight boxers were testing their opponent with a few shots. Only a matter of time until it explodes. Dillian Whyte vs. Dereck Chisora Style …

8: Mats Hummels and Niklas Sule remain in depth. In fact, they are just outside the penalty area of Manuel Neuer. They visibly watched the rehearsals of the Roma visit to Anfield last season.
5: Stop-Start-Stop-Start. Some good mistakes in the middle of the field in the first five minutes. The pace has slowed, which will certainly be on Bayern's list of things to do.
3: IIt will be interesting to see how Liverpool starts as 10 days have pbaded since the last game played. It does not seem long, but they could be a little rusty.
Martinez can not live with Wijnaldum in the middle before clearly pulling his shirt. Free kick and warning of the referee Gianluca Rocchi.
LIVERPOOL 0-0 BAYERN MUNICH
1: Everybody is ready? Well. We are on our way to Anfield.
A small mistake before the kick off as the Champions League hymns begin before YNWA is over. Liverpool fans ignore him and start singing again.

Prediction
7:58 p.m.: Well, I'm going to twist my head and predict a 3-1 win for Liverpool. I can not see this makeshift defense keep a blank sheet and I can not see Bayern live with the offensive power of the hosts.
Big Shaq
7:51 p.m.: Xherdan Shaqiri enjoys a meeting of the Champions League with the former club of Bayern Munich.
This should perhaps read "was" at the moment when the Swiss international will start on the bench tonight.
Shaqiri spent two and a half years in Bayern before joining Stoke under a £ 12 million contract in July 2015.
"I was very happy because I wanted to play against Bayern Munich, against my former teammates and my old team", Shaqiri said.
"It was an incredible feeling to win so many trophies, I had very good memories, I will never forget them.I'm really looking forward to going there and trying to win the match in Munich with my team. "
The Bayerns meet …
7:47 p.m.: As. But is not Abbey Road in London?
Not long
7:45 p.m.: Oh, the atmosphere is bubbling well at Anfield. Flags fly, rain falls and Roberto Firmino's teeth blind everyone.
Jurgen Klopp and Niko Kovac, Bayern Munich coach, also have a small chinwag in the middle of the pitch. It's like meeting friends together.
"I've never been to Anfield"
7:40 p.m.: Robert Lewandowski, striker from Bayern Munich: "I have never been to Anfield.
"It will be my first time, I have heard a lot and I can imagine a stadium like Anfield with all the fans, they will be against me but I love this feeling."
"It will be a very difficult match, Liverpool is at the top of the Premier League and playing very well, but it's the Champions League, something special.
"We know we have some really good players, you have to be ready, you have to play 100% for 90 minutes."
Maybe you should leave a comment on Trip Advisor when you leave, Robert. "Never come back. Hit repeatedly by Jordan Henderson and an Egyptian guy tore up my ragged colleagues. I would not recommend it ", could we read …

7:33 p.m.: Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp at BT Sport: "Firmino, yesterday he was not well but nowadays he is there. All the results of the Champions League are important. The further you go, the stronger your opponent. Boateng is not there for Bayern, but it will be a tough match. "

Andrew: Tonight's game is the Battle of the Laterals. Four very aggressive players who play a key role in their team's playing style. Do they stick to what they know or do they show more caution in a knockout first leg match?
Shane: Mbadive week. Will really determine our season. 2 wins and we roll. Sign of the work done by Klopp, Liverpool fans can expect weeks like this.
Alan: With Virgil gone, it will be a tough match. With Messi out of shape, it will be difficult for Barcelona. And yes, as an adult man, you can have two teams.
No, you can not, Alan. No you can not.

L & # 39; opposition
7:25 p.m.: It is time to take a closer look at the national form of Bayern Munich. It's quite strange to focus on that since they have usually won the Bundesliga …
After a mixed debut in their Bundesliga campaign, which saw two losses in the first seven games and questions to new boss Niko Kovac, Bayern had a good run to return to the title race.
At nine points from Borussia Dortmund last month, the reigning champions in Germany are just two points behind, although they played one more game than the leaders of the league.
Bayern, however, is not at its best. They were beaten by Bayer Leverkusen this month and extended by Hertha Berlin within the DFB-Pokal before having to recover twice from a goal to see Augsburg in the Bundesliga on Friday night.
On a note quite distinct, the guy in the photo below does not look like "Don Neto" Narcos: Mexico.
If you have not seen it on Netflix … what have you done ?!

Most difficult draw
7:20 p.m.: Bayern Munich boss Niko Kovac said Liverpool were the hardest team his team could ever win, but Bayern will still have a result.
"I want to say once again that we are playing tomorrow against an opponent where the draw is the most difficult", Kovac said.
"If you look at what Liverpool did in the Champions League last season and what they are doing in the Premier League this season, you have to say it's the toughest draw ever.
"The atmosphere will certainly be good, but I'm sure my players have lived a lot of big matches with a good atmosphere, so this is not an argument for not being able to compete tomorrow."

Something must give
7:15 p.m.: Bayern Munich have scored at least two goals in their last eight away games in Europe (W6, D2 to L0), but the Bavarians have failed to score in their previous three visits to Anfield (D2 L1).

Prince: There is only one way to play with this improvised defense. Play by pressing, attacking and scoring as we did long before the VVD arrived. We must forget to defend tonight.
Jim: Fabinho's third game in the middle, and the third different partner he had with him. He was excellent in Brighton alongside vDijk and played with Lovren at Wolves in the cup. Tonight he's next to Matip.
Francis: Bayern is not his team but what he has, they are very promising young players. Give them one or two seasons and they will rip Liverpool. Unfortunately, as a fan, they will be beaten 4-0 tonight.

Somewhere else…
7:05 p.m.: Anfield is not the only ticket in town tonight, guys. There is also a good confrontation between Lyon and Barcelona in France.
The Catalan giants, who usually have free scores, drew three games in a row before imposing Saturday against Real Valladolid (1-0), scoring only four goals in four games.
I guess that will change tonight.
Lyon XI: Lopes, Dubois, Marcelo, Denayer, Mendy, Traore, Ndombele, Aouar, Terrier, Depay, Dembele.
Barcelona XI: Ter Stegen, Nelson Semedo, Pique, Lenglet, Jordi Alba, Sergi Roberto, Sergio Busquets, Rakitic, Messi, Suarez, Dembele.

It's not personal – Jurgen Klopp
19h00: Yes indeed!
The German has been engaged in numerous fights with Bayern during his tenure from 2008 to 2015 as boss of Borussia Dortmund. Her team finished twice Bundesliga champion and twice second behind Bavaria.
Klopp's Dortmund was also beaten by Bayern in the 2012/13 UEFA Champions League final.
"I do not feel like that, obviously a few people have called me in recent days to say that in Germany it's going crazy because of this game, but it's like that." " Klopp said. "I do not understand this kind of personal battles."
"Yes, I was director of Dortmund and I had some success there, but it was still difficult to play against Bayern." The beat was still the biggest challenge that the 39, we can meet in German football.
"I do not see it as a personal thing for me."

LIVERPOOL vs BAYERN MUNICH
In Liverpool, Fabinho should be in central defense in the absence of Virgil Van Dijk, suspended, while doubts were expressed about Roberto Firmino.
Van Dijk must serve a ban on a match and, as no sign of Dejan Lovren (hamstring) at training on Monday and Joe Gomez (broken leg) still unscathed, midfielder Fabinho is ready to be used alongside Joel Matip at the back in the last first leg match of the Champions League at Anfield.
The attacker Firmino was also not involved Monday because of a virus and will be evaluated. Winger Xherdan Shaqiri, a former Bayern player, could make his comeback after missing out on the 3-0 Premier League win over Bournemouth due to an injury to the abdomen.
Bayern Munich winger Franck Ribery and central defender Jerome Boateng are not available.
Les deux hommes ne faisaient pas partie de l'équipe qui est partie en Angleterre. Ribery est resté à Munich après être devenu père et Boateng a contracté un virus à l'estomac.
Les Bavarois devront également attendre pour déterminer si l’ailier Kingsley Coman sera capable de jouer après avoir été blessé à la cheville vendredi.
