Carragher brought Liverpool back into the game against Middlesbrough on Saturday with an 86th minute equaliser, although his shot did take a wicked deflection off Emanuel Pogatez. Although most news agencies are crediting the Boro defender with an own goal, Carra is claiming it as his.
"I want to claim it but it's not the end of the world if I don't get it. I'm hardly going to break any goalscoring records, am I?" said the Reds vice-captain.
"Middlesbrough performed well. It was a great strike from Mido and, to be honest, I couldn't really see us scoring.
"They defended very well but I've seen that happen so often. We have done it so many times at Anfield, where all of a sudden something just happens in the last 10 minutes and the Kop sucks a goal in.
"We have been doing that for 40 years, since the days of Bill Shankly."
