Liverpool FC Boss Staying Positive Over Euro Mission

Liverpool manager Rafael Benitez insists his side still have a chance of Champions League success despite last night’s defeat to Chelsea.

The Reds go to Stamford Bridge next week trailing 3-1 after a first leg disaster at Anfield.

Fernando Torres put the hosts ahead, but Branislav Ivanovic netted twice before Didier Drogba put the Londoners in the box seat.

But afterwards Benitez said: “Clearly it will be very difficult, but in football anything can happen. We have to play well and score three goals against a very good team.”

Chelsea boss Guus Hiddink said: “Liverpool have shown in the past they can do unthinkable things, and we have to avoid that.”
