Carra delighted

Carragher reacted quickest to Daniel Agger's flick on yesterday to score Liverpool's second in their 4-0 defeat of Fulham. Afterwards the popular defender reflected on his first Premiership goal in almost eight years.

"It's my first Premiership goal this century which is a bit embarrassing to be honest!" said the Reds' vice captain.

"The important thing today was to win the game and so for us to do that and for me to score was the icing on the cake really.

"I get forward for more corners these days so hopefully I can get on the end of a few more things in the future.

"The big thing was the victory today and we're delighted with the result. I think we have to credit our goalkeeper though because he made a great save from McBride's shot in the first half. I thought it was going in to be honest, and if Pepe hadn't saved it then we'd have been 1-0 down and it would have been a different game.

"It's been a good day for us because we've scored four goals and kept another clean sheet. We just have to keep going, keep working hard and keep winning."
