Half-Time Report: Goalless at Anfield between Liverpool, Oldham Athletic

Liverpool are drawing 0-0 with Oldham Athletic at half time in their FA Cup third-round match.

Aly Cissokho put in a dangerous low cross in the opening minutes, but no Reds player could reach it.

The home side again pushed forward, with Iago Aspas flashing the ball across the face of goal behind his onrushing teammates.

Luis Alberto then shot wide after good build-up play from Victor Moses. Alberto had a powerful right-footed shot saved as the first half reached its midway point, and Martin Kelly also tested the Oldham goalkeeper as the home side began to turn the screw.

Johnson Clarke-Harris won a free kick for the lower league team, but they struggled to create chances.

Raheem Sterling had two late efforts for the Reds, but he was wasteful with both as the match entered half time locked at 0-0.
