Benayoun urges caution
iverpool midfielder Yossi Benayoun has warned his team-mates that they still have a job to do if they are to progress to the UEFA Champions League quarter finals.[LNB] The 28-year-old headed the crucial away goal in Liverpool's memorable 1-0 win over Real Madrid in the Bernabeu on Wednesday but the Israeli is wary that the job is only half done.[LNB]Real rarely threatened the Merseysiders' back-line throughout the 90 minutes with the hosts restricted to long-range efforts.[LNB]The away goal means that Rafa Benitez's team are well and truly in the driving seat in the tie and although Benayoun is confident he is not getting carried away.[LNB]"Of course I am happy because it was very nice to score such an important goal," he told the Liverpool Echo.[LNB]"But the main thing was the win because it was a great result for us. For now though we must remember that there is still one more game to go and we must finish the job at Anfield.[LNB]"Winning the game 1-0 means that we have the confidence that we can go through but we cannot afford to think that the tie is finished.[LNB]"Real Madrid have a lot of good players and we know we will have to work hard to complete the job.[LNB]"Real are one of the biggest clubs in the world and they are capable of winning anywhere, but hopefully we will win and go through to the next round."[LNB]AgreementWinger Albert Riera echoed his team-mate's sentiments but he must watch the return leg from the stands after he picked up his second booking of the competition.[LNB]"The scoreline was sensational. It is true that Real arrived with better form but football changes things," he said.[LNB]"We played a serious match and we stopped their key men. I am happy with the victory but also sad because I cannot play at Anfield because of the yellow card.[LNB]"The referee was severe with me.[LNB]"Liverpool say that the match is 180 minutes and we have now played 50 per cent. [LNB]"I had read the quotes of the president of Real Madrid but that was extra incentive for us. The squad were very motivated for this match for a very long time.[LNB]"The atmosphere at Anfield it will be unique and that's an advantage for us" [LNB]
