Hyypia pleased with performance

Hyypia, who captained Liverpool in the absence of Steven Gerrard and Jamie Carragher last night, was pleased with the way the Reds went about beating Toulouse.

"We did a good, professional job and we managed to get a few goals," said the Finn.

"We decided beforehand to go for the game quickly and try to get that early goal, and thankfully it came. I think we could have even scored a few more, especially first half, but we are happy to be in the group stages.

"We played with a high tempo, moved the ball around well and showed a good attitude."
