Steven Gerrard reflected on Liverpool's progress into the semi-finals of the Champions League and hailed 'a great team performance'. The Reds will face Chelsea for the third time in the semi-finals of European football's top club tournament after edging out the Gunners 4-2 on the night and 5-3 on aggregate. Gerrard kept his nerve from the penalty spot just five minutes from time to put Liverpool back into the driving seat after Emmanuel Adebayor had threatened to spoil the Anfield party with a goal for the Gunners. "That is up there with the best European nights," said Gerrard. "Arsenal are a fantastic team and at times they passed us off the pitch but we stuck together and never lacked belief. In the end we've come through thanks to a great team performance. "I was always confident I was going to score from the spot even though that was one of my worst performances in a Liverpool shirt. It's not about the goalscorers tonight though, it's about the team display. "I've said it many times but over two legs we are a match for any side. If our fans keep performing like that then other teams find it impossible against us. "We've got some big league games coming up now but we'll be ready for Chelsea in the semi-finals."
