Liverpool Cruise Past Sunderland

March 7, 2009

ANOTHER WIN IS JUST WHAT LIVERPOOL’S MANAGER, RAFAEL BENITEZ, NEEDS TO STAY IN THE PREMIER LEAGUE TITLE CHALLENGE. WITH A WIN AT SUNDERLAND, HIS TEAM REALLY NEEDED THOSE THREE POINTS. YOSSI BENAYOUN AND DAVID NGOG MADE SURE OF THIS. HIS FIRST START IN THE PREMIER LEAGUE WAS A WORHTWHILE ONE FOR DAVID NGOG. AFTER THEIR LOSS TO MIDDELSBROUGH AT THE RIVERSIDE ON SATURDAY, ALL HOPES WERE FADING AWAY SLOWY.

WITH FERNANDO TORRES OUT INJURED AND STEVEN GERRARD NOT BACK TO FULL FITNESS YET, LIVERPOOL HAD TO TAKE SOME CHANCES TO SURVIVE. AFTER A 1-0 WIN AT REAL MADRID AT THE SANTIAGO BERNABUE, ANYONE WOULD HAVE THOUGHT THAT THEY WOULD SURELY BEAT A WEAK MIDDELSBROUGH TEAM. AGAINST SUNDERLAND THOUGH, A COMPLETE DIFFERENT LIVERPOOL ATTITUDE WAS SHOWN.
