Liverpool 1 – Unirea 0

If I am not mistaken this means that we won so why the hell is anyone upset?

I am thrilled with the win, a victory is a victory and I will take it any day.

Yes we should have scored more but the Romanians played with 11 men in the box and you have to give them credit for defending well.  We had lots of shots on target but it seemed that the ball would not go in. The shots were either saved by their keeper or deflected by one of the defenders.

They came to Anfield with the hope of keeping a clean-sheet and maybe sneak a quick counter attack and snatch an away goal. Well they failed because David N’Gog scored in the 81st minute to give us a deserved victory. Credit to Rafa for the tactical change in the 2nd half by bringing on Ryan Babel & Danny Pacheco who were both instrumental in the winning goal.

In Romania it will be a different game, they will have to open up more and we should have a stronger squad and I believe will have at least one of the injured trio back  (Johnson, Torres & Benayoun) if not all.
