Benitez faces goalkeeper dilemma

LIVERPOOL manager Rafael Benitez is facing a goalkeeping dilemma going into the crucial festive programme.

Benitez was hoping that Jerzy Dudek would put pressure on the injured Chris Kirkland with a commanding performance last night. Instead the Poland shot-stopper appeared to be at fault for Portsmouth’s equaliser which came a minute into stoppage time.

He palmed a cross from substitute Matthew Taylor into the path of Lomana LuaLua, who headed home from close range.
