Belief is the key for Benitez as Liverpool in last-gasp win

LONDON: Rafael Benitez said his Liverpool side's belief will be the key to their success this season as they slug it out for the English Premier League title.

The Spaniard said the character shown by his Reds was "fantastic" as they kept pace with Chelsea at the top of the table.

Liverpool fought back to a last-gasp 3-2 victory at 10-man Manchester City as Chelsea beat visitors Aston Villa 2-0 on Sunday to leave both sides level on points, with the Blues ahead on goal difference.
