Rafa relieved as ’Pool weather Pompey storm
The Reds won 2-1 and the Spaniard said: “They put us under a lot of pressure but we want to win every game and the most important thing is we are in the hat for the last 16.”
Pompey, 2-0 down at half-time, were upset by the award of a penalty against skipper Dejan Stefanovic for handball in the 36th minute, which Steven Gerrard converted.
