Crystal Palace vs Liverpool LIVE score: Premier League result and reaction
Crystal Palace 0-0 Liverpool: Jurgen Klopp’s Reds endured a frustrating evening in London as they failed to break down Palace
Liverpool completed a difficult week with a frustrating 0-0 draw at Crystal Palace that did little to enhance their prospects of finishing in the Premier League’s top four.
Thrashed 5-2 at home by Real Madrid in the Champions League on Tuesday, Jurgen Klopp’s side laboured against a Palace side who well deserved their point.
Liverpool moved up a place to seventh in the table, six points behind fourth-placed Tottenham Hotspur. Without a win in eight league games, Palace are 12th, six points above the relegation zone.
Mohamed Salah hit the woodwork for Liverpool in the second half but Palace had two gilt-edged chances in the first period with Marc Guehi heading wide and Jean-Philippe Mateta firing a shot against the crossbar.

CHANCE! Henderson slides it through the gap down the middle to pick out Gakpo, and he drives forward before sweeping it out to Salah on the right. He tries to catch Guaita out at his near post, but curls it into the side netting.

It's better from Liverpool here as they work it down their left. Gakpo is crowded off it, so it's worked back to Robertson. He tries to curl it into the near post, but Andersen makes the block.

Alexander-Arnold's wayward crossfield pass gives Palace a throw-in high upfield. Olise controls it before sliding it through to Ayew. He holds off Van Dijk to set up Mateta, but he came back from an offside position to do it.
