iverpool defender Fabio Aurelio admitted the weekend defeat by Middlesbrough was a missed opportunity in the title race.[LNB] The Reds slumped to only their second defeat in the Premier League this season after Middlesbrough recorded a 2-0 victory at the Riverside.[LNB]The defeat means Liverpool remain seven points behind leaders Manchester United having played a game more with their title hopes hanging by a thread.[LNB]Aurelio admits the players were disappointed with the manner of the defeat at Middlesbrough and has called on his team-mates to get back to winning ways against Sunderland on Tuesday night. [LNB]"We are very disappointed because we felt we had enough chances to win the game in the first half," Aurelio told the club's official website.[LNB]"We lost a great opportunity to try to get closer to Manchester United but we must bounce back now and beat Sunderland at Anfield on Tuesday night.[LNB]"I thought we started really well. We kept the ball and had good opportunities but we couldn't score. When that happens there is always the chance the opposition can score.[LNB]"Unfortunately we conceded a goal from a corner, which was hard to take. In the second half we didn't create as many chances but we still had some good opportunities.[LNB]"Middlesbrough got every man behind the ball and made it difficult for us. They scored the second goal from a counter-attack when we lost the ball. That was disappointing.[LNB]"We will still keep on fighting because we know in football that anything can happen. We won't give up and we will now try to win every game."[LNB]
