Devenny bullets his penalty past Alisson to seal victory for Crystal Palace, who are winners at Wembley for the second time in three months.

Alisson probably had it covered on reflection.

90+3 min: Palace substitution Justin Devenny comes on for Marc Guehi.

90+2 min The corner is half cleared and knocked back to Szoboszlai, whose shot from the edge of the area is comfortably saved by Henderson.

90 min Five minutes of added time.

Hughes stays on his feet, which may have helped Mac Allister.

88 min Salah is booked for a foul on someone.

86 min There’s no extra-time so this will go straight to penalties if there are no more goals.

85 min: Crystal Palace substitution Jefferson Lerma replaces Adam Wharton, who showed again that he is good enough to play for any team in the world.

84 min: Liverpool substitutions Harvey Elliott replaces Florian Wirtz, who peppered the match with moments of class, and Andy Robertson comes on for Milos Kerkez at left back.

83 min Sarr and Munoz gallop forward on the break for Palace.

But Palace want a penalty for a handball by Mac Allister earlier in the move.

79 min: Palace substitution Borna Sosa, a Croatian left wing-back signed from Ajax, replaces Tyrick Mitchell.

After Gakpo was muscled off the ball by Hughes, Wharton clipped a cute early pass through to Ismaila Sarr.

Not a bad chance; as Ally McCoist says on TNT Sports, Richards needed to strain his neck muscles to head back across Alisson.

59 min Alisson has to come out of his area to beat Mateta to a lofted through ball.
