Harry Kewell was the match-winner as Liverpool bounced back from their midweek Champions League disappointment with a hard-earned but deserved 1-0 win against 10-man Manchester City at Anfield.

Kewell struck the decisive goal five minutes before half-time in a game that saw City's Scouse midfielder Joey Barton sent off for a second bookable offence early in the second half.
  
The Reds enjoyed plenty of possession during the 90 minutes and had enough chances to increase their margin of victory but for the third consecutive home game a lone goal sufficed.
  
After experiencing contrasting cup fortunes at home and abroad during the previous eight days, Rafa's men returned to Premiership action with the aim of strengthening their claims for second spot against a City side they defeated 1-0 at the City of Manchester Stadium in November.
  
With Jamie Carragher suspended, Momo Sissoko injured, Robbie Fowler ineligible to face his former club due to the terms of his recent transfer and Luis Garcia benched, Rafael Benitez made four changes to the team that had started against Benfica in midweek.
  
Skipper Steven Gerrard returned in his favoured central midfield position, FA Cup hero Peter Crouch was recalled up front, Daniel Agger partnered Sami Hyypia in the centre of defence and Jan Kromkamp lined up on the right flank.
  
The early morning kick-off made for a subdued Anfield atmosphere as the game got underway but the Reds were quick into their stride and dominated the opening stages. A succession of early corners threatened a rapid breakthrough, with Crouch heading wide from a Gerrard cross and Kewell having a close-range effort well blocked by City skipper Sylvan Distin at the near post.
  
A lull in play then descended before Hyypia rose to glance a header wide and a poor clearance by David James almost offered Fernando Morientes a free shot an open goal. Former Red James was easily the busier of the two keepers and moments later he was forced into action again when Kewell let fly from 25-yards with an effort that was struck straight at the City number one.
  
Liverpool suffered an injury blow just after the half hour mark when Xabi Alonso was forced to leave the field after failing to recover from an earlier clash of heads with Joey Barton but their wait for a deadlock-breaking goal was not long in coming.
  
Kewell was the scorer, coolly slotting the ball low past the outstretched James and into the bottom far corner after racing clear down the left, but it owed much to the midfield vision of Gerrard who picked out the Aussie with a sublime pass from inside the centre circle.
  
The opening strike sparked a further flurry of activity in the City goalmouth on the stroke of half-time as the Reds threatened to settle the contest before the break with Crouch seeing a header cleared off the line by Danny Mills and Gerrard driving a menacing ball across the face of goal.
  
City's hopes of mounting a second-half comeback took a severe knock within seven minutes of the restart when they were reduced to ten men following the dismissal of Barton. The Huyton-born midfielder, who had received a first half caution for a foul on Agger, was shown a second yellow for a late challenge on Hyypia.
  
As so often is the case though, the visitors responded positively to the sending off and almost immediately carved out three opportunities to draw level.
  
First, substitute Bradley Wright-Phillips forced Pepe Reina into his first save of the afternoon with a well-struck shot from the left side of the box. A Trevor Sinclair strike from 25-yards out was then superbly tipped over by Reina just when it looked to be heading for the top corner and to round off a worrying five-minute spell for the Reds Albert Riera charged through from midfield but woefully failed to find the target with only the keeper to beat.
  
A delightful back-heel from Crouch, which rolled agonisingly wide, and a Dietmar Hamann pile-driver that crashed against the crossbar ensured the fans remained on the edge of their seats as play swung from end to end.
  
A second Liverpool goal would have killed off City's brave fight but the failure find one frustratingly meant yet another nervous Anfield finale ensued. Thankfully, one proved to be enough and the hot pursuit of second-placed Manchester United continues, with only goal difference now keeping us below them.

Despite seeing his side defeat Manchester City and bounce back from the defeat in Benfica, Rafael Benitez declared himself not totally satisfied with his side's narrow victory.  
The Liverpool manager feels his side should have been more clinical and finished the game off after creating a series of chances to add to Harry Kewell's opener.
  
"I am not happy with the final score," commented Benitez. "It was three important points but I like to see us score more goals because at only 1-0 we put ourselves under pressure.
  
"I always say you need to score the second goal and finish the game but we couldn't get it and that made us nervous. We didn't play at our level when they went down to 10 men and we made some mistakes.
  
"We did create some chances but we didn't take them. Morientes is playing really well outside the box and gives the team a lot of possibilities, but inside the box we need to finish and maybe sometimes be more selfish.
  
"I left Morientes on because I wanted to see him score. It is important for his confidence and I think he and Crouch play well together."

路透倫敦電---利物浦周日在主場以1-0小勝曼城，在積分榜上繼續緊追暫列次席的曼聯。


比賽進行到第40分鐘，澳洲中場科威爾(基維爾)攻入全場唯一進球。雖然利物浦此後還有多次進球機會，但始終未能擴大比分，英格蘭射手克勞奇(確治)更是多次錯失良機。

由於曼聯周日參加了聯賽杯比賽，多賽一輪的利物浦積分已追平紅魔，不過因淨勝球少仍居第三。

博爾頓(保頓)周日以2-1主場擊退富勒姆(富咸)，以42分升至第六。富勒姆以32分名列第14。

赫爾古松(希古遜)第22分鐘為客隊先下一城，但他在第45分鐘又自擺烏龍，讓博爾頓扳平了比分。第68分鐘，諾蘭(路蘭)為主隊攻入致勝一球。

在周日另外一場比賽，哈塞爾巴因克(哈索賓基)上半場獨中兩元，幫助米德爾斯堡(米杜士堡)在客場以2-0擊敗西布羅姆維奇(西布朗)。

米德爾斯堡目前以31分排在第16，高出降級區八分。西布羅姆維奇以五分之差位列第17。

比賽進行到第54分鐘時，客隊球員夸希(基亞斯)因腳踢博阿騰(保定)被逐出場外。(完)

(星島日報報道)利物浦周日於英超聯賽憑基維爾一箭定江山，主場以一比○小勝有祖爾巴頓被逐的曼城，除掃走上周中於歐聯不敵賓菲加的陰影外，在聯賽亦錄得三連勝。


　　由於利物浦中場施素高因傷倦勤，故隊長謝拉特重回中場中路與沙比阿朗素合作，而一月來投的荷蘭右閘克羅金則客串右中場。面對有「黑雙煞」高爾和華素爾受傷缺陣的曼城，紅軍甫開賽便搶得優勢，左翼基維爾八分鐘禁區左邊接應前鋒摩連迪斯頭槌二傳，一控一射卻「省」中敵

在本周日進行的一場英格蘭足球超級聯賽中，曼城隊在客場負於利物浦隊，延續了自己英超聯賽客場戰績不佳的弱點，而他們在安菲爾德面對紅軍的歷史戰績依然處於絕對下風。

　　這場比賽中，曼城隊在陣容上進行了一些調整，主力右後衛米斯傷愈復出，他頂替了小將里查茲的位置，後者雖然在足總杯中有一個極其關鍵的進球，但是在這場比賽中，主帥皮爾斯依然在比賽中使用了自己更加放心的米斯出場。

　　皮爾斯放棄了里查茲，選用經驗豐富的米斯出場的原因，是立足於依靠堅固的防守在安菲爾德盡量爭取得到1分，不過恰好就是在這個右後衛位置上的一個紕漏，讓利物浦隊贏得了本賽季的第11場主場勝利。

　　第40分鐘，謝拉特中圈拼搶，迅速右腳凌空挑傳左側，基維爾甩開了米斯的盯防，連趟兩步突入禁區左側，在門前10米處左腳抽射遠角得分。在科維爾帶球突破後，米斯才發現身後的對手，但是他以最快速度回追也追不上澳洲人，後者冷靜的射門得分。

　　中場休息時，ESPN的電視評論員認為，米斯顯然對於曼城的丟球負有一定的責任，他首先沒有留意到邊路迂回的科維爾，給後者留下的空擋太大了，隨後在科維爾快速突破的時候，米斯回歸速度不夠最終看著科維爾一腳左腳低射打進了全場比賽的唯一進球。評論員專門提到，如果右後衛位置上使用的是孫繼海的話，那麼也許就可以追上科維爾。

　　不過從主帥皮爾斯的思路來看，右後衛他還是最信任米斯，如果不出線災難性的表現的話，他不會輕易換人。孫繼海現在依然處於養傷階段，目前尚未清楚他何時能復出。

　　曼城後腰巴頓今天領受紅牌下場將被停賽，因此下一場比賽孫繼海能及時復出的話，他可能來到中場，但如果不能康復，主帥皮爾斯可能會使用小將愛爾蘭德頂替巴頓的位置。(PIPPO)

艾歷臣急不及待搵新工


【明報專訊】英格蘭國家隊教練艾歷臣為免在世界盃後變成「無業遊民」，最近已積極找尋新東家。他昨日公布英軍對烏拉圭友賽的23人名單，當中曼聯後衛布朗及中場基蘭李察臣再獲重召。

廣 告


重召布朗李察臣撼烏軍

根據艾歷臣與英格蘭足總早前的協議，該瑞典籍教頭在8月1日離職前，可與其他球隊商討加盟事宜。故此艾歷臣為免之後失業，近日四出「放風」，尋求新「歸宿」，他說﹕「如果我想在8月便有另一份關於足球的工作，我不能到7月中才『搵工』，因為屆時所有國家隊與球會都已聘請教練了。」他又表示不在乎之後執教的球隊在中國、在英國，抑或在瑞典，最重要的是可再執「教鞭」。雖然離隊在即，但艾歷臣仍對英格蘭闖入世盃4強充滿信心。

另外，周三對烏拉圭的世界盃熱身賽的23人名單昨日「出爐」。曼聯與熱刺各有5人入選，當中最令人詫異是曼聯後衛布朗和中場基蘭李察臣再獲徵召。至於腳部受到重創的曼聯中場阿倫史密夫及阿仙奴的蘇甘保等則因傷未有入選。該熱身賽將於利物浦主場晏菲路球場上演。

Liverpool Under-18s crashed back down to earth with a bump on Saturday following their youth cup heroics, when they lost 2-1 to Wolves.  
The team were full of confidence following their 6-0 thrashing of Carlisle United to reach the semi-finals of the FA Youth Cup, but unfortunately it was just a bad day at the office against Wolves.
  
Reds Under-18 manager John Owens admitted it was a below par display by his team with too many players having off-days. Conal Platt scored for Liverpool but Wolves scored a late winner to take the three points.
  
"It was a very disappointing performance to be honest and too many players had off-days," reflected Owens.
  
"We had the wind with us in the first half but we were guilty of too many long passes and we found ourselves 1-0 down at half-time.
  
"Five minutes into the second half I made three substitutions, but unfortunately we then lost Francis Smith after a bad tackle so we played the final 35 minutes with 10 men. Francis has an ankle ligament problem but it isn't as serious as we first feared and he should be back in action in two weeks.
  
"One positive for us was having Paul Lancaster back in goal after injury and he played well."
  
Liverpool Under-18s: Paul Lancaster, Jordan Holmes, Stephen Darby, Calum Woods, Robbie Threlfall, Charlie Barnett (Ryan Flynn 50), Paul Barratt, Francis Smith, Michael Nardiello (Conal Platt 50), Ryan Wignall (Craig Lindfield 50), Jimmy Ryan. Sub unused: David Roberts (GK).

Harry Kewell admits he felt a mixture of relief and frustration after Liverpool's hard earned 1-0 win over Manchester City at Anfield on Sunday.  
It was Kewell's 40th minute strike - his second of the season - that won all three points for the Reds but despite being delighted to have come away with the victory he later conceded that 10-man City made life difficult in the second half.
  
"It was hard for us. We were ahead but when they had a man sent off it boosted them," says the Aussie star. "City stepped up their game a couple of notches after the sending off. They looked like they had 12 men, not 10. They were unlucky not to get something, they had a few good chances."
  
Liverpool's inability to kill off their opponents ensured another nervous finale ensued at Anfield but Kewell adds: "Let's not forget that Peter Crouch was excellent, he hit the bar and had a some good chances of his own. He was terrific out there. He should have had three or four and only David James stopped him by pulling off some great saves.
  
"We just can't seem to get the second goal but at least we are making the chances. On another day they would all have gone in."
