RIISE: I'LL RECOVER FROM OG AGONY
John Arne Riise has vowed to use Tuesday’s last-minute own goal as an inspiration to make sure Liverpool get through to the Champions League final in a week's time.
The Norwegian's error means Liverpool will have to score at Stamford Bridge to stand any chance of boarding a plane to Moscow in May.
Riise has scored two massive goals against Chelsea in the past, once in an FA Cup semi-final and once in a Carling Cup final, and he believes he can change his fortune again.
"What can I say?," said Riise. "I decided to stoop and head the ball in the direction it came from.
"But it was a swerving cross, the ball was wet, and it slid right off my forehead. It was a shock to see it lying in the goal.
"These things happen for defenders from time to time. I know how strong I am mentally and I will handle this and I will come back from an own goal like that.
"I have been involved in tougher things in my life than this and I know that I will handle this in a good way. I will try to turn this around to something positive."
