Liverpool 3 : Newcastle 0
09/03/2008 6:33 AM
Hyypia came on after 78 minutes - replacing Pennant - as Liverpool utilised a three-man central defence which could operate against Inter on Tuesday.
Harper saved well from a Kuyt flick and then got down to block a Riise drive, before Benayoun saw a diving header deflected just wide as the Reds finished in confident fashion against a team which is heading in the wrong direction.
