The right side is a problem for both teams at Old Trafford. Glen Johnson's already slung in two shots for Liverpool, one of which could easily have gone in, and Rafael da Silva is now in action for Manchester United after yet another example of Jose Enrique getting turned inside out by Antonio Valencia. Stewart Downing didn't pick up the Brazilian right-back's run, and the shot came within a couple of inches of being deflected in by Danny Welbeck. Fortunately for the visitors, the young striker failed to make contact and Pepe Reina can collect.
In general, both teams are defending reasonably well in the centre - Wayne Rooney's been a complete non-factor in the match, but there's a certain laziness in possession that'll eventually cost somebody here. As if to prove the point, Michael Carrick nearly hands David de Gea out to dry with a misplaced backpass, although the goalkeeper just about manages to recover and punt forward. Still 0-0 here.
