Javier Mascherano has hailed Liverpool's fighting spirit after their come-from-behind victory at Manchester City.

The Argentina midfielder told liverpoolfc.tv: "It is good to win games when you have been losing because it shows that you have a good spirit and a togetherness in the squad.

"We always believe that we can win games no matter what the situation is - you have to have such belief when you are at a club like Liverpool.

"On Sunday we had a feeling that if we got one goal we would be back in the game and that is exactly what happened, so we are all very happy.

"Now we have to look towards the next game and try to win that one also because we have confidence and we are playing well."
