Liverpool coach Rafael Benitez, praised the appearance of skipper Steven Gerrard, who scored two goals against Burnley. The presence of Gerrard is very important to satisfy the thirst goals due to the absence of Fernando Torres goal getters.

In a game at home to Burnley on Sunday (25/04/2010) night, it was Gerrard scored twice, opening for "The Reds". The goal, added another goal from Maxi Rodriguez and Ryan Babel, a thirst for the release of "The Anfield gang" after Torres injury. Liverpool's goals at once return to a winning record after being hit by Atletico Madrid last week at the Europa League semi-final first leg.

"The second goal is a goal that can be printed by Stevie, a fantastic strike," said Benitez. "He's got the capability, accuracy, and strength. I really always in him and that's very good news for us."




"When you do not have a player like Fernando Torres, who normally score goals, it is important to have players like Steve. He scored many goals in the past and hopefully will be the same on Thursday (opponents Atletico)," he continued.

With this victory, said Benitez, Liverpool are expected to cover the end of the season with good results even without Torres. Four goals without reply to boost team spirit should be able to re-capture the fourth position of the English League as well as get them to Champions League qualification via the path.

"After four goals without reply, you must be sure. I think we can defeat Atletico Madrid and to the finals, and if we get three points in every duel league, we had a great chance in the top four," said the Gaffer.

Liverpool is now in sixth with 62 values. To go to the Champions League, Gerrard and his friends must displace Manchester City and Tottenham Hotspur, the odds of each one and two points from "The Reds".
