Absolutely fucking made up boys and girls. Some real courage there tonight from our players and everyone of them deserve a big pat on the back for thier effort, might as well give my verdicts:
Reina 6: Looked dodgey as he has done is recent weeks
Carra 7: Made the most of his play on the right and took on the challenge
Skrtel 8: Awesome, pacey, strong in the air, and he kept us in the game with a few good interceptions
Hyypia 8: Great Header, looked comfortable a lot of the time tonight
Aurelio 7.5: Again, he looked brilliant, cleared at the right times, kept it on the deck when he needed to
Kuyt 8.5: Absolutely brilliant, over the past months or so he has been awesome, what an effort from him, never stopped running and some good hold up play at the end, he kept his head and was suprised not to see him take the penalty
Gerrard 7: Not his best of nights but never stopped working for it, and kept cool with his penalty
Alonso 7: Looked off the pace in the first half an hour but picked himself up and played well
Mascherano 7: Closed everything down, another solid performance from him
Torres 7: Quiet all night, 1 chance, bang, hell of a goal, made up for him
Crouch 7.5: Brilliant, held up the ball, won every header, linked up well.
Subs:
Babel 8: Have to give him credit, got the pen, got the goal, held the ball up well, fantastic
Riise 7: Did his job, and did it well
Arbeloa - Not long enough
My MOTM has to be Kuyt, for his sheer determination, absolutely fantastic effort
