Kops 'fortunate' to lose 0-1 at Braga, says Dalglish

Liverpool manager Kenny Dalglish believes his side were lucky to leave Braga with only a 1-0 deficit from their Europa League last-16 first-leg tie.

A poor first half was compounded by Brazilian midfielder Alan's 17th-minute penalty after Sotirios Krygiakos fouled Mossoro. Left-back Silvio crashed a 35-yard volley off the crossbar during that spell but the Reds recovered some of their composure after the interval to ensure they remain slight favourites when they return to Anfield next Thursday.

Dalglish said: "Considering the way we played in the first half we are fortunate to come away with a 1-0 because when you play as badly as that you are grateful you lose 1-0. To only be 1-0 behind might be a bonus. To give the lads credit, they picked things up and raised the tempo and with a bit of luck we could have got an equaliser.
