Jamie Carragher his revealed his disappointment at Liverpool's inability to close the game on Tottenham after their defeat against West Brom.
Kenny Dalglish's team have an outside chance of qualifying for Europe but they trail fifth-placed Tottenham by five points, having played a game more.
For all intents and purposes it looked like they would close the gap after they took the lead against West Brom on Saturday through Martin Skrtel, with Tottenham held by bottom club Wigan.
However, two Chris Brunt penalties were enough to seal a come-from-behind victory for the Baggies.
The Liverpool vice-captain nevertheless insists his team will continue to fight for a European place.
"It was disappointing to lose the game and with Tottenham only drawing makes this even more of a bad result," Carragher told Liverpool's official website.
"We obviously didn't know the Tottenham score until the end of the game but we can't worry about other teams.
"We've just to look after ourselves and get as many points as we can to try and close the gap.
"West Brom did well and it was a big three points for them, but it was a very disappointing day for us.
"Luis Suarez looked dangerous again for us and he was unlucky not to get an equalizer right at the end, but unfortunately besides the goal we didn't create enough chances in the first 75 minutes of the game."
