Champions League: Liverpool and Arsenal looking to Europe for trophy
4 hours ago
LIVERPOOL, England — Liverpool made its Champions League clash with Arsenal a lot tougher when it bruised the Gunners' domestic campaign on the weekend.
Now Europe is the likely last path to glory for both Rafa Benitez and Arsene Wenger after flunking their Premier League challenges.
Benitez believes his Liverpool side can knock out the weary Gunners on Tuesday (2:30 p.m. ET) in the second leg of their quarter-final match - and the final instalment of a weeklong Liverpool-Arsenal trilogy.
"This game will be the most important option they will have," Benitez said. "If they want to win a trophy, they will have to win this game because it will be really difficult in the Premier League."
Five-time European champion Liverpool snatched a crucial away goal in last week's first leg draw and held Arsenal 1-1 again on Saturday in the Premier League to leave the Gunners six points adrift of leader Manchester United.
With only five rounds left, United has 77 points, Chelsea has 74 and Arsenal is a distant third with 71, giving even greater importance to the second leg at Anfield.
"We have to fight more for the result at Anfield, but that is good," Arsenal defender William Gallas said. "It is a great opportunity to go up there and fight, then we will see where that takes us. All the boys are ready for the big fight."
Arsenal striker Robin van Persie is doubtful with a thigh injury.
Wednesday's hard-fought 1-1 draw at the Emirates Stadium saw Liverpool's Dirk Kuyt quickly cancel out Emmanuel Adebayor's opener.
Benitez is frustrated that both Arsenal goals in the last week came from set pieces.
"If we analyze the number of goals we're conceding it's too many," he said. "We need to defend with more intensity and be more aggressive ... we have conceded two goals which is a big problem and we are working on these things."
Wenger will draw inspiration from Arsenal's comeback in the last round - winning 2-0 at AC Milan after being held 0-0 at home.
The Frenchman insisted his youngsters have exceeded expectations this season.
"We will play our game on Tuesday night and try to win the game, and give absolutely everything," Wenger said. "People expected us to be between 10th and 12th (in the league) at the beginning of the season so we are beyond expectation."
Benitez's squad rotations have been blamed for Liverpool's failure to end 18 years without an English title, but winning a second European Cup in four seasons - after the 2005 title and last year's final - would be some vindication for his much-disparaged strategy. Eight changes were made to the Liverpool side for the Arsenal game. The Gunners made five changes.
"We need to improve in the league, we need to be more consistent," Benitez said. "The next season can be different in the league hopefully."
Liverpool's Peter Crouch, who scored Saturday in a rare start, said he was disappointed by his lack of action.
"Before when he (Benitez) was rotating, at least I was getting a game here and there," the England striker said. "But the manager's obviously stuck with a formation now that seems to be working ... I will just have to obviously keep working hard and try and change his mind."
Crouch is still in the manager's plans.
"He wants to play more games, it's clear, but he also knows (Fernando) Torres is on fire," Benitez said.
