Marseille coach Erik Gerets hailed Liverpool skipper Steven Gerrard, after their defeat to the Reds on Tuesday.

The French side lost 1-2 at home to the Premiership side in the Champions League clash.

Gerets hailed Gerrard after the match, and told the press: “Gerrard is a world-class player and he proved that. Only players of that quality can score goals like that.

“We had just scored and we should have been focused on protecting that advantage. But players of Gerrard’s quality are capable of scoring goals like that and he changed the course of the match.

“I am very disappointed with the result. We created enough chances to have won. I am angry with the outcome because we were unable to make use of our good play and the opportunities we created.”

The Liverpool skipper also took time to tell his views on the match.

He told the Sun: “My first goal was a good finish but the real heroes were Reina and the back four.

“We came under pressure and we will look back at the tape of the second half to see where we went wrong because we did not pass it well.”
