Dear Liverpool supporter,

When you lose like we did last night it is always very disappointing.
We gave away a lot of possession, we had plenty but did not keep it.

In the first half we did not create many opportunities but after the
break we did produce more dangerous situations around their box.

It was difficult to fnd space against a very aggressive team who were
one ahead. We did become more dangerous as the game went on. In the
second half we were a lot better; we were more aggressive and created
more possibilities.

Until Olympiacos scored they had not created anything, but after their
goal the game changed. They were confident and had more opportunities.

Their fans were very supportive, but we too have that level of support
at Liverpool where our fans give us fantastic support just as those of
Olymiacos did.

As far as the group goes, now every team has a chance of qualifying -
so the home games for everybody will be important now. Whoever wins
them will have a great chance of qualifying.

Regards,

Rafael Benitez
Liverpool Manager
