Liverpool boss Benitez rages against "unbelievable, invisible" penalty decision

Liverpool boss Rafa Benitez raged against Chelsea's late penalty decision after their 1-1 draw.

"We created enough chances to have won the game and we would have won it but for an invisible penalty awarded against us," said Benitez. "The referee made a mistake and it was unbelievable. Everybody could see it wasn't a penalty and it's a pity as it cost us two points.

"We are so disappointed because we played well against a good team but the decision that went against us, you just can't explain it.

"It is unbelievable. How can you take this decision? It is unbelievable. A team that is working so hard how can you change a game like this?

"Clearly the game was under control but this kind of decision is something you cannot explain.

"Maybe he was under pressure all the time. Anyway I prefer not to say too much."
