With three games left in the first phase of the competition, the Reds must go to Monaco and Deportivo before their final game, at home to Olympiakos.

"We have to get a good result in one of the two away games," said Hamann. "But we're confident after what happened at Fulham and there's no reason why we still can't qualify. We're all very hopeful.

"We played well against Deportivo and had the chances. At Fulham we took them but tonight we didn't. Their goalie made some good saves but at the end if you can't score then it's important to keep a clean sheet and take a point.

"We've got four points from three games but we still have a chance. It'll be a different game when we go over there because they'll come at us a bit more. We're still in this competition."
