Gerrard admits: Difficult To Take


Liverpool captain Steven Gerrard admitted he was finding defeat to Milan hard to take after his side were beaten 2-1 in Athens.

Gerrard was celebrating two years ago when Liverpool won the final, and told Sky Sports: "It's the complete opposite. It's difficult to take but that's football.

"You've got to take it on the chin, move on and try to pick yourself up but at the moment it's heartbreaking.

"I thought we started well, we were in control just how we like to be but when you do that you've got to score. They got the first goal, with a bit of luck, but it was a big lift for them.

"We gave everything but it wasn't to be tonight."
