Minute By Minute

• 108 Min
  On that note, we'll bid you farewell from Anfield after a thoroughly enjoyable afternoon for Liverpool – though our thoughts are with Fabio Borini and we wish him a very speedy recovery from his dislocated shoulder. The Reds had to settle for five goals this afternoon but it could have so easily been more – let's hope they've saved a few more for Thursday night's Europa League clash with Zenit St Petersburg.
• 106 Min
  @InfostradaLive: "This match is the first in the #EPL era in which TWO different Liverpool players convert a penalty in the same league match. This was 5th time that Liverpool converted 2 penalties in a PL match. Previous 4 all involved the same scorer: Baros, Fowler, Kuyt, Gerrard."
• 105 Min
  The hosts had 54.3 per cent of the ball and forced 10 corners to Swansea's one.
• 104 Min
  Liverpool had an incredible 35 shots at goal today, compared to Swansea's three. Of those efforts for the Reds, 10 of them were on target.
• 103 Min
  BR on Suarez sub: "I wanted to give him a little round of applause and rest his legs for Thursday night."
• 102 Min
  BR: "He's a wonderful technician and I've got high hopes for him."
• 101 Min
  BR: "Coutinho is a really talented player. He's only 20 but he's got good experience at the highest level."
• 100 Min
  BR on Borini injury: "He will probably be out for the season. It looks like he has dislocated his shoulder."
• 99 Min
  BR: "It was a very important win and a wonderful performance. It showed our character and mental toughness."
• 98 Min
  BR: "It was an important three points. It's been a bumpy road this week in terms of results."
• 97 Min
  Post-match reaction from Brendan Rodgers' press conference coming up...
• 96 Min
  ML: "This was a very bad game for us and the blame is on all of us, me included because I picked the team."
• 95 Min
  Swansea boss Michael Laudrup: "They scored three goals in 10 minutes and you cannot do that. We could have lost seven or eight-nil today if it wasn't for Michel [Vorm] and that's not good enough."
• 94 Min
  Stay with Liverpoolfc.com for a match report, photo special and reaction from the boss.
• 93 Min
  A magnificent performance from the Reds, who scored five and could have got 10. Brendan Rodgers' side climb to seventh in the Barclays Premier League.
• 93 Min
  FULL-TIME
• 90 Min
  Three minutes added on.
• 89 Min
  "There's only one Brendan Rodgers" sings the Kop.
• 88 Min
  Both sides effectively playing out time now.
• 86 Min
  A worrying incident, however - Fabio Borini has just landed heavily on his shoulder and walked straight down the tunnel for immediate treatment.
• 85 Min
  The Reds have had a mammoth 35 shots this afternoon.
• 83 Min
  Johnson has been attacking regularly today and he supports again, whipping an effort just wide of Vorm's right post.
• 82 Min
  Substitution: A. Rangel for I. Shechter
• 81 Min
  It may be 5-0 but Brendan Rodgers is still on the touchline, marshalling his troops and giving advice - notably to Daniel Sturridge.
• 78 Min
  Substitution: F. Borini for L. Suárez
• 76 Min
  Substitution: N. Dyer for P. Hernandez
• 76 Min
  First Booking: Pablo Hernandez:
• 75 Min
  Sturridge found time to hit the crossbar among all that!
• 74 Min
  Swansea have been very disappointing here today but take nothing away from Liverpool – this has been a performance packed with attacking verve and determination.
• 73 Min
  Substitution: J. Allen for L. Leiva
• 71 Min
  Wayne Routledge is penalised for handball and Gerrard hands penalty duties to Sturridge, who side-foots into the top corner with ease.
• 71 Min
  GOAL! Daniel Sturridge:
• 71 Min
  Sturridge to take....
• 70 Min
  PENALTY to Liverpool.
• 67 Min
  Sturridge gets through one-on-one for the umpteenth time but again Vorm matches his effort with the outside of his left boot.
• 67 Min
  Jonathan de Guzman, who scored here in the Capital One Cup earlier this season strides forward from midfield but is crowded out by Jamie Carragher and then Enrique.
• 66 Min
  Confidence is now so high that Johnson has just attempted a lob from fully 40 yards. And he wasn’t far away either.
• 64 Min
  Great opportunity for Sturridge to further extend the advantage but his powerful slice is beaten away by Vorm.
• 63 Min
  Substitution: W. Routledge for R. Lamah
• 60 Min
  Substitution: J. Henderson for P. Coutinho
• 56 Min
  Non-stop goals at Anfield at the moment - and Suarez joins the fun with his 18th in the league this season. The No.7 snaked around a challenge and picked his spot with aplomb.
• 56 Min
  GOAL! Luis Suarez:
• 54 Min
  Agger rises highest and nods over a Gerrard corner.
• 51 Min
  As I said, breathtaking stuff!
• 50 Min
  And now it is three! Enrique and Sturridge combine to great effect around the Swans area and the Spaniard takes a touch before smashing home beyond Vorm.
• 50 Min
  GOAL! Jose Enrique:
• 48 Min
  A cheeky backheel from Coutinho moments later almost made it three. Breathtaking stuff since the restart.
• 47 Min
  Barely seconds into the second half, the Brazilian burst clear of the Swansea defence and slotted past Vorm to double the Reds' lead.
• 46 Min
  Coutinho has his first Anfield goal!
• 46 Min
  GOAL! Philippe Coutinho:
• 46 Min
  SECOND HALF
• 46 Min
  @TonyBarretTimes: Swansea are all over the place at the moment. Disjointed and distracted.
• 46 Min
  HALF-TIME
• 45 Min
  One minute added in the first half.
• 44 Min
  Excellent clearing header by Johnson from an inswinging Swansea free-kick.
• 41 Min
  The Reds have had 21 shots at goal in 40 minutes.
• 40 Min
  It's all Liverpool at Anfield.
• 38 Min
  So nearly two and another Reds goal for Sturridge. The England international broke clear down the right but his dinked attempt drifted away from goal. He subsequently drives straight at Vorm from a narrow angle.
• 35 Min
  Suarez won the penalty after being felled in the Swans area - and the goal is the least Liverpool deserve.
• 34 Min
  Gerrard makes amends for his miss on Monday, finding the bottom left corner.
• 34 Min
  GOAL! Steven Gerrard:
• 33 Min
  Gerrard to take...
• 33 Min
  PENALTY to Liverpool.
• 32 Min
  Suarez sets up Gerrard, arriving at the edge of the Swans area, and the captain’s drive is deflected wide.
• 29 Min
  Lucas with a low strike from range - comfortable for Vorm.
• 28 Min
  There’s a first glimpse of Coutinho’s quality – the midfielder slips a beautiful through ball beyond the visiting defence but it’s slightly too heavy to marry with Sturridge’s run.
• 26 Min
  12 shots and almost 60 per cent of possession for Liverpool here. But still goalless.
• 25 Min
  Liverpool haven’t scored but I don’t know how. Suarez sends Sturridge clear behind the defence and the 23-year-old hurdles a succession of challenges before seemingly being tripped. Webb says no penalty and Coutinho side-foots the loose ball wide.
• 23 Min
  The Reds respond and it’s Sturridge. Downing creates from the right yet again, working room and whipping in an accurate centre which the striker connects with – narrowly over.
• 22 Min
  Classic defending by Jamie Carragher keeps the Welsh side at bay after Pablo Hernandez broke clear on the right and looked for a teammate in the area.
• 20 Min
  Superb effort from Suarez – the forward picked up a bouncing ball 25 yards out and attempted a delightful lob volley which had Vorm beaten but hit the roof of the net.
• 19 Min
  The Reds have registered nine shots already here - but only one on target.
• 18 Min
  The No.7 hits this one - a curler - but it's too high to trouble Vorm.
• 18 Min
  Another foul on Suarez and another dangerous free-kick for Liverpool....
• 17 Min
  Steven Gerrard blasts the set-piece at the wall and Suarez can only send the rebound over. Unlucky.
• 15 Min
  Foul on Suarez 20 yards from goal in a central area... chance for the Reds.
• 14 Min
  It’s Downing again with an effort. Enrique spreads play to Suarez on the right, the Uruguayan tees up his teammates nicely but the strike is well over Vorm’s goal.
• 13 Min
  Another Reds corner and Downing drills a perfect ball to Johnson, forward from the back. The defender’s header is off target, though.
• 11 Min
  Suarez almost releases Jose Enrique – bombing forward from left-back – but Vorm is out quickly. Downing tries his luck again from the right seconds later. Wide.
• 8 Min
  Swansea win a corner and the delivery comes to Roland Lamah in the penalty area. The wide-man looks for goal with a low volley but Glen Johnson is in the way. Webb waves away appeals for handball from the travelling fans.
• 7 Min
  A crunching tackle from Lucas Leiva in the middle of the park appears to take the ball cleanly – but referee Howard Webb blows for a foul. Boos from the crowd.
• 5 Min
  First strike at goal in earnest from Suarez, who capitalises on a bobbling ball at the right edge of the box and wastes no time in firing towards Michel Vorm - well saved.
• 4 Min
  Swansea are attempting to get their foot on the ball but the Reds are pressing quickly and high up the field. Promising early signs for Rodgers' men.
• 2 Min
  Then he glides past a couple of challenges and drills towards goal. Blocked for another corner, from which Stewart Downing volleys wide. Strong start from the Reds.
• 1 Min
  Coutinho has started the match in a wide left position, with Luis Suarez tucking in behind Daniel Sturridge. The Brazilian instantly earns a corner.

  To find out more about today’s opposition, we spoke to Swansea fan Ross Baxter, who said: “We'll miss Chico this weekend as he has been a rock in defence throughout the season, but we do have the likes of Monk and Bartley who are ready to step up to the plate and who haven't let us down when they've been given a chance this season.”

  “The reality is that losing the game on Monday night makes it very difficult. It means we can still do it but we have to pick up a win somewhere else when maybe we were looking at our home games in particular as games to build on our good form at home and try to get some results away.”
