Liverpool's Georginio Wijnaldum has said that his team kept believing following their recent run of frustrating form.
The Reds claimed a morale boosting 7-0 win against Maribor in the Champions League on Tuesday after having won only one out of their previous eight matches in all competitions.
When asked if he found that it was a relief that Liverpool were scoring again, Wijnaldum said: "Not with me. We were a little bit sad that we didn't score a lot of goals (in recent matches) as we created a lot of chances.
"The manager told us if we play like that, creating a lot of chances and (are) maybe more ruthless in the chances we get, then we would score goals.
"We just kept the belief and played how we always believed - just being more ruthless."
Liverpool next face a difficult encounter on Saturday when they take on Tottenham in a Premier League match at Wembley Stadium.
