"In the first-half I felt we played well and had a lot of chances to score, but they were working hard too," said Benitez.
"In the second-half we started well and I think that was what made the difference. They got back into it with the set-piece and so it was good for us to see Gerrard score.
"We needed to score the third but in the end we are happy to win the game."
