Liverpool midfielder Steven Gerrard has praised the club's fans for the role that they played in yesterday's 2-1 victory over arch rivals Man Utd in the FA Cup. Two goals from Dutch striker Dirk Kuyt ensured their progress into the next round.
Prior to the game, there had been talk of a massive supporter backlash against Patrice Evra for his role in the racial fracas with Luis Suarez last year.
However, Liverpool fans were well behaved and Gerrard said after the game: I thought the Liverpool fans were superb today," Gerrard told ITV1.
"They never let us down and they played a part today. They pushed us through.
"They realised we were very tired after midweek, but when they're pushing they suck goals in, and I think they sucked Dirk's goal in today."
