Girona v Liverpool LIVE: Champions League latest score and goal updates as Reds defend perfect record

26 mins: Closing in on the half-hour mark and either team could realistically be in front. Big chances for both, with keepers at each end being put to work.

After being under the cosh for a few minutes, it’s Liverpool who are once again seeing plenty of the ball, with a lot of play coming through Luis Diaz.

The Colombian has just driven down the flank and towards goal on the byline, but his attempted delivery goes into the side-netting.

21 mins: Phenomenal delivery by Trent Alexander-Arnold, Darwin Nunez goes to flick it on and the effort just passes by the front post.

Replays show it actually came off a Girona man – could have been an own goal but alas, it will go down as great defending.

Our senior football correspondent Richard Jolly at the Estadi Montilivi:

“This is the smallest ground in the Champions League this year and made even smaller because Uefa don’t allow Girona to use two temporary stands. So capacity today is under 10,000, giving it an unusual feel for a game in this competition.

“The 492 Liverpool fans who got tickets were almost rewarded with a historic sight: Joe Gomez, who has never scored for Liverpool, came close with a header. They haven’t ben able to see an Alisson save for a couple of months and he has made two already.”

16 mins: Good bit of pressure from Girona.

Gutierrez and Bryan Gil are causing Liverpool problems, another big save forced from Alisson.

However, the hosts cannot get carried away, with Mohamed Salah nearly punishing them following a quick breakaway.

12 mins: Big chance for Girona, who catch Liverpool on the break.

Bryan Gil charges through the middle before finding Gutierrez on the left. His delivery is miss-kicked by Blind yards from goal before Frances’ strike at the far side of the box is saved well by Alisson.

7 mins: SAVE! Another big stop from Gazzaniga, this time to deny Nunez.

Gravenberch does what he’s done so often this season, turning his man in the centre and driving towards the box, before slipping one through to Nunez.

The Uruguayan smashes one towards the near post, parried away by the former Spurs shot-stopper.

4 mins: SAVE! We nearly just witnessed a bit of history.

Robertson’s corner is whipped in and up rises Joe Gomez, whose powerful header from six yards out forces a strong save from Gazzaniga.

A reminder that Gomez has yet to score a goal in his professional career. That decade-long drought nearly just came to an end.

3 mins: Early pressure from Liverpool as Diaz moves down the left before cutting back to Gravenberch, whose lofted delivery towards the men in black lacks bend.

They’ve now forced a rather needless corner, with Robertson to take.

1 min: KICK-OFF! Darwin Nunez gets us underway at the Montilivi.

The teams are out on the pitch as we prepare for a first ever meeting between Girona and Liverpool. In fact, it’s the first time in history that Girona are pitted against an English team.

From the Spanish fifth tier to the pinnacle of European football, this is a historic evening for Girona – and they’ll be eager to cause an upset against one of the contintent’s most decorated titans.

Anthem blaring, kick-off moments away!
