Scott Parker was proud of his players but gutted for them at losing to a Mohamed Salah penalty in the final moments of the game to deny the Clarets a well earned point.
00:00I think that's probably it. It's really heartbreaking the way the game finishes for us and two weeks on a row now that it's in the dying minutes, obviously two penalties that decide the game and we don't manage to get the result really so pretty disappointing.
00:18To that point, how pleased and proud of you were with the European brothers?
00:22Both pleased, proud, came into today's game with a plan, playing against an incredible team that over the course of the last two, three, four years have seen that.
00:38You can't open space against Liverpool, you open space then they're deadly, they want space, they want you to speed up their attacks.
00:45We came in with a plan today to not do that and I think for the majority of the game we did that very well.
00:52There were bits where we did speed up their attacks and there were problems but I thought the players really reduced the performance,
01:00was everything we've worked on this year, organised this week, organised, diligent.
01:06I'm just gutted for them really, I'll be honest with you, that's what I'm gutted.
01:10I'm 44 years of age, I've had some ups and downs, I've had some disappointment in professional sport and in life really.
01:17And I suppose it's these nuggets sometimes in life that for the group would have been a real powerful moment.
