Liverpool keeper Reina: I told Riise to forget it

Pepe Reina says Liverpool's players will rally round John Arne Riise after his own goal against Chelsea.

The goalkeeper said: "What could John say to me? Of course it was a bad way to concede but he was just trying to clear the ball. It was an accident. Going into the last minute it was going to be a great result for us but we have to help him now and he knows that. I just said to him, 'Carry on, that's football.' How many times has he cleared things and played fantastic for us? We have to support him."
