The Slovakian defender was delighted to score his first Liverpool goal but was disappointed to see Man City score twice as the Reds drew 2-2 at Anfield for a second successive game.
"I was very happy to score my first goal for Liverpool. I have been waiting a long time for it, so it was a good moment for me," said Skrtel.
"I am in my third season here and hadn't managed to score until today, but I hope this is the first of many more.
"But we are frustrated to have drawn again because we wanted to win. We couldn't in the end, and we are not happy because of this.
"There is nothing we can do about the result now and we have to look forward to the next game and try to win."
