Liverpool boss Gerard Houllier has thrown down a challenge to skipper Sami Hyypia.

Speaking after the game last night, Houllier challenged the Liverpool defender to take the club forward and win another trophy for the club and for himself.

"His challenge - and he knows it - must be to be the first foreign captain to lift a trophy for the club," said the boss.

"It's a shared vision we have for himself and also for us. Sami is a great defender and the captain of the team and big players always play big when it matters."
