DOMINATING AND HOW! 

Chelsea are back at their best and with the amount of talent they have in their squad, the scoreline is quite accurate. 

Five goal scorers for Enzo Maresca's side. But what about Graham Potter? Only time will tell.

3 minutes added to the full time.

From the corner, Kilman should have done better. He had the whole goal to aim for at the far post and headed it down and wide. 

Ward-Prowse is fouled by Fofana, and it is a free-kick from the edge of the 'D' box for the home side.

First yellow card for the night. Hato gets the yellow card for kicking the ball away.

Aguerd misses the target with a header from the corner. 

Pedro Neto is down after a tackle by Diouf 

Since Wilson has come in for West Ham, they have looked better and have been creating a few chances.

Estevao received a through ball from the middle and nearly went one-on-one against the goalkeeper. 

However, he could not finish the job as he tried to delay his shot. 

Huge chance for West Ham United as Wilson had the chance to shoot but decided to pass it on the right, and Caicedo then made the clearance. 

Kyle Walker-Peters replaces Tomás Soucek.

Reece James replaces Malo Gusto. Jorrel Hato replaces Marc Cucurella. Wesley Fofana replaces Trevoh Chalobah.

Save from Sanchez as Souček's volley from the edge of the box was on target. 

Bowen did well to lob it from the right for Wilson to get high up and meet it with a header.

But, Wilson was not on target with his header. 

Andrey Santos replaces Delap.

Again from the corner, the ball was not cleared well, and Chalobah found the net with a cross-footed shot.

It is going to be a long night for Graham Potter. Many West Ham fans are already leaving the stadium.

In his 100th Chelsea match, Moises Caicedo scores. 

From the corner, Hermansen came out but could not clear the ball fully. 

It fell in perfectly for Caicedo to finish it with his right toe.

Enzo should score from here.

However, his attempt went over the goal.

Changes for West Ham at the start of the second half. 

Freddie Potts replaces Jean-Clair Todibo. Callum Wilson replaces Niclas Füllkrug.

After that solid start, West Ham could not hold onto their lead as Chelsa turned the game on their head to make it 3-1 for Chelsea.

Neto had won the physical battle with Paquetá and passed it to Estevao to make a run on the right. 

But Diouf came running in and deflected it for a throw in for themselves. 

Six minutes have been added as injury time.

Bowen's right footed shot from inside the box is blocked by Cucurella.

England manager Thomas Tuchel, who is also a former Chelsea manager, is in the house.

Too easy for Chelsea now.

From being 0-1 down to now being 3-1 up.

Esetavo made a solid run and made a quick entry inside the box, and kept going deep.

Estevao's cross found Enzo Fernandez in the middle of the box, just to tap in for the third goal.

25 yards from the goal, and he decides to shoot it with his left foot. Into the top corner, and Sanchez could not do anything with that. 

The Brazilian gives West Ham United the lead. His first goal since January.

WHU 1-0 CHE

Looks like Caicedo will play a bit deep tonight, and he is following Bowen all over the place.

In case you have missed it, Cole Palmer has a niggle and was injured during the pre-match warmups. He will have to stay on the sidelines tonight. 

Chelsea, in their dark blue third kit, start the proceedings.

Of course, he had to score.

Wonderful skill from the Egyptian king as he made a quick cut back on the right and went for a shot with his right foot.

Salah's attempt was saved by Petrović, but it popped up in the air. 

Winterburn's headed clear fell at the right place for Chiesa to go for a powerful volley.

It's easy to see why Antoine Semenyo had interest from the likes of Liverpool, Man United and Spurs this summer 😮‍💨

Szoboszlai goes for the goal with a left-footed shot. However, as he was falling down, he could not connect with the ball that well and missed the target. 

OHHHH MYYYY WORRRRLLLDDD!

What a goal by Semenyo.

In a counterattack, Semenyo made the long run, took the ball deep and with Liverpool defenders crowding him at the edge of the box, he went for a powerful shot.

It is all equal now.

The visitors are now looking dangerous. 

Brooks had the chance to go for the goal after some tussling. But, it was blocked by the Liverpool captain. 

Cody Gakpo's powerful shot from the left of the box goes straight to Petrović. 

The Brazilian's long ball fell perfectly for Salah to nearly go one-on-one against the goalkeeper. However, he could not finish the job after a poor second touch. 

Bournemouth are back in it.

Semenyo scores the goal for them. 

They find the net in a counterattack. Brooks with an inch-perfect cross from the left, and Semenyo was able to go past Robertson to side-foot the ball for a goal.

Dominic Szoboszlai's cross pass found Writz in a good position to go for a side-footed shot.

Out: Jeremie Frimpong And Milos Kerkez

Brooks went for a cross from the touchline, close to the box. Alisson was able to get a punch to that. 

Semenyo then went for a shot, but went for a goalkick.

Mac Allister, with a powerful shot from the edge of the box, nearly scored. However, Petrović was cautious enough to deflect the away for a corner kick. 

Cody Gakpo doubles the lead for the defending champions. 

Poor defending here from the visitors. Hugo Ekitike made a quick turn at the edge of the box on the left and found Cody. 

The Dutch striker was then allowed to make an entry deep inside the box and go for a shot with his right-footed from 16-yards.

The second half starts. No changes from either side. 

In a counterattack, Liverpool and Salah had the chance to extend the lead before the half-time whistle. However, Truffert came running in and made the tackle to win the ball back.

Hugo Ekitike scores on his Premier League debut for Liverpool.

Mac Allister with the pass to him, and he kept on going inside the box. His attempted nutmeg to Senesi fell in the right place for him to go for an easy finish. 

He shows the 20 mark to dedicate the goal to Jota.

 Tavernier found a juicy ball inside the box following a cut-back from the right. He hit the ball straight to Alisson. He should be disappointed with that. 

Mac Allister made a good run into the box. However, the Argentine's side-footed pass for Firmpong could not find the winger as he ran ahead of the ball. 

Finally, the corner was take,n and it was Virgil van Dijk, who jumped in the air to get a head to it. However, it went straight to Petrovic. 

We have a break at the moment, with the referee having a word with the match officials and players. 

Ekitike had the chance to riddle the ball into the goal from an airy ball outside the box by Writz. But Diakite was there to deflect it for a corner to Liverpool FC.

Although Liverpool are enjoying more possession, the visitors have won the physical battle so far, with more bodies, winning tackles and one-on-one situations.

Semenyo, this time, manhandled Writz to win the ball back for Bournemouth. 

In the 20th minute of the match, fans show Diogo Jota's jersey and clap his name to give him a resounding tribute. 

After the first mistake, Konate now fails to clear the ball away and hands it to opponents. However, Evanilson, who has handed the ball over by Konate, was found offside.

Yellow card for David Brooks.

We are heading to the penalties now. No extra time for this match, and the penalties will decide the winner. 

That could have been the end of the game.

In: Mac Allister, Wataru Endo

We have a cooling break and looks like we will have changes as well.

On a day he has not placed a single foot wrong, Writz, in the middle of the box, after receiving a juicy pass, mistimed the finish. 

Eze's left-footed low shot from close range was saved by the Liverpool goalkeeper. 

Szoboszlai let the ball go away, and Palace had the chance to counterattack and score. 

Ohh, from the second corner, Richards had all the chance to head the ball inside the goal. 

He had the time and space. But his timid header went straight to Alisson, who did not make any error. 

Palace earn two consecutive corners. Good spell of play for them. 

Guéhi's cross was backheaded by Mateta, and it went towards Sarr at the right of the box. 

Sarr was found offside after going for the header. 

It is Writz again who is causing all the problems.

Ekitike found his pass again but decided to give it to Salah. 

Salah's cross was then blocked by Guéhi.

Writz drills another cross from the left. Ekitike needs to do better with that.

It was accurate from Writz, but he could not keep that side booted shot down. 

Munez is injured after colliding with the referee. 

Big chance for Liverpool. But Ekitike heads wide from Kerkez's cross

No changes from either team as we start the second half.

The referee blows his whistle, and this is the half-time at Wembley. 

Liverpool will be happier with the result so far. But they know that the one-goal deficit is never safe. 

Good control from Writz on the left, and he then lofted the ball for Frimpong to go for the goal with a volley.

However, he skied the ball up after mishitting it. 

Brilliant cross from Munoz from the right. But, Konate had Sarr covered, who could not get a touch to that top-class cross. 

Oliver Glasner is disappointed, though. 

Yellow card for another Liverpool player. This time it is Florian Writz, who gets the caution. 

7 minutes have been added to the first half. 

Eiktike wanted to run away with the ball on the left. But, Richards kept chasing him and stayed with him before winning the physical battle. He won the ball back for Palace. 

Konate receives the first caution of the match as he tackled Mateta from behind in the middle of the pitch. 

In Hugo Ekitike and Jeremie Frimpong, this is the first time two players have scored on their #LFC debut in the same game since August 2006 - Craig Bellamy and Mark González v Maccabi Haifa.

The Dutch star first made a good run to stop a possible goal-worthy pass from Sarr, at the edge of the box. 

Then, he quickly shifted the pace, found Writz on the flank, who found Ekitike on the left. 

Gakpo then made another run to find the pass from Ekitike, but his pass to Salah was not recieved well by the Egyptian.

Unfortunately, Kamada can not continue anymore, and he will be substituted by Will Hughes. 

Kamada is down with a leg injury while Konate needs medical attention for something happened to his eye. 

Frimpong is lucky here, or he is a genius. 

Szoboszlai changed the game from left to right and found Frimpong on the right. 

His attempted cross luckily went inside the goal after Henderson failed to expect the shot. 

Liverpool take the lead. 

Crystal Palace 1-2 Liverpool.

Mateta scores from the spot. He sent Alisson on the other side, and he hit the back of the net.

All square at Wembley.

Penalty for Palace. 

 Ismaïla Sarr is pushed down inside the box by Virgil Van Dijk and Palace win the penalty.

Crazy touch from Ekitike to find Writz. Salah, on the move, found the pass on the right.

However, Salah's cross found Gakpo on the left. Although Henderson made he save, the Dutch striker was offside. 

Eze's attempt is deflected away for a corner by Konate. A good few minutes for the FA cup winners. 

For the first time in ten minutes, Palace have been able to create an attack. 

Kamada, on the left, kept going inside and before he could send a cross from the byline, Frimpong deflected the ball for a corner.

Hugo Ekitike scored for Liverpool in his debut match within 4 minutes.

Writz found the ball from Gakpo, and the new signing then found Ekitike with a smooth pass at the edge of the box. 

Ekitike made a quick turn and then went inside before going for the goal with a right-footed curling shot.

Crystal Palace 0-1 Liverpool.

As per a few rumours. Alexander Isak was not allowed to visit the ground to watch Liverpool play. Newcastle will fine him, if he comes. 

Liverpool get us underway at Wembley Stadium. Liverpool are in their away kit while Palace are in their home kit of blue and purple.

A minute of silence has been observed for the late Diogo Jota and his brother, who lost their lives in an accident. 

We are done with the anthem. The handshakes are going on. Let's get ready!
