Dalglish: It could have gone either way

Liverpool manager Kenny Dalglish bemoaned an evening of bad luck after his side's 1-0 defeat at Fulham.

Clint Dempsey's goal five minutes from time proved the difference at Craven Cottage in a match that ebbed and flowed throughout.

After an even first period, Liverpool looked rejuvenated and dominated proceedings until Jay Spearing was controversially sent off in the 72nd minute.

The red card swayed the match in Fulham's favour and their pressure paid dividends when Dempsey tucked home from close range.

"It could have gone either way but I don't think we were going to get anything, were we?" Dalglish said. "The goal Luis (Suarez) scored (that was ruled offside) could have gone either way. Charlie (Adam) could have got a penalty when he was pulled down on the edge of the box.

"We never got (the luck) but we have just got to brush ourselves off and get on with it. We've got to get ourselves into work on Wednesday morning and get ready for QPR on Saturday."
