Liverpool FC manager Rafael Benitez looking for a miracle after Lyon draw
RAFA BENITEZ has urged his players to keep believing in miracles after Lyon's late show left their Champions League hopes in tatters.[LNB]Liverpool's 1-1 draw at the Stade de Gerland last night means they require Lyon to win in Florence in three weeks.[LNB]Many believe it is a hopeless task but having masterminded escapes from improbable positions before, Benitez is not giving up the fight.[LNB]'It is difficult but not impossible. We have to win our next game and then see what happens.[LNB]'It depends on the result between Lyon and Fiorentina but we cannot talk about them if we do not do our own job.[LNB]'We have to keep going. We have produced miracles before and maybe we can do it again. We are really disappointed as this was a great opportunity and we had some chances. We were almost there and then we conceded another late goal against Lyon.[LNB]'It makes a massive difference.'[LNB]There was a suggestion that there was an offside in the build up to Lyon's equaliser but Benitez refused to condemn the match officials[LNB]'We have to improve how we control games when we are winning,' he said. 'We have to keep the ball better and maybe we have to be stronger in the challenge.'
