Manchester City 1, Liverpool 0 , as Kiki kills us in the final minute...
Disappointed Liverpool boss Rafael Benitez has warned his players to start learning some harsh lessons otherwise they can forget about landing a Champions League berth next season.
Just five days after their thrilling win over Juventus, the Reds looked likely to collect a point from their below-par display at Manchester City until Kiki Musampa's last-minute winner gave the Blues a deserved win.
Benitez lambasted his team's failure not to kill the game in the latter stages as they gifted Bradley Wright-Phillips possession at a throw-in close to the halfway line.
Wright-Phillips ferried the ball on to fellow substitute Lee Croft, whose cross provided Musampa with the opportunity to strike.
"I am very disappointed," said Benitez.
Now Everton plays the patsy Crystal Palace tomorrow at home, and could reopen a 4 point lead with only 6 games to play...

Hey, if WBA can beat them and Norwich can go 2-0 on Man. U, who knows?
Blue Moon, you saw me standing alone! Pass it to the Dutchie on the left hand side. What a goal. Sorry Reds. Giggle.
And now Gerrard will miss the Champions League second leg due to injury. Greatness. The fat lady is warming-up the vocal chords.
Looks like benitez might just play Cisse for the final few minutes if we need to score badly. Although I would've thought he'd go for a performace similar to the one at anfield - ie. attack and not sit back and defend cuz thats when they've conceded vital goals. Carling cup against chelsea, second half against juve...
