Liverpool boss happy with point in Naples

Liverpool's Roy Hodgson admitted he was content with a point after overseeing his side to a 0-0 draw with Napoli in the Europa League on Thursday night.

The Reds were tipped to lose by many pundits, especially without stars Steven Gerrard and Fernando Torres, but fought hard to grab a point which pleased their under-fire manager.

"There were plenty of positives to come from the game," he told Sky Sports.

"It was a good point which many people didn't think we would get, considering the team selection, but we've proved them wrong.

"We are delighted with a point which keeps us top of the table."
