Comments:
Reds boss Rafael Benitez: “I was most pleased with the team spirit and our plan worked very well for us. We knew they had very quick players up front so we sat back and tried to hit them on the counter attack. You need to create the majority of chances in games like this and that is exactly what we managed to do.”
