Liverpool goalkeeper Pepe Reina says winning the Europa League would get fans back onside.

Reds players are desperate to end what has been a massively disappointing season on a high.

Kop keeper Reina said: "This is the only trophy we can lift this season.

"It is massively important. All the players here want to lift silverware and this is our last chance to do that."

The Reds must turn around a 2-1 deficit against Benfica tomorrow night to have any chance of success.

And the Spanish stopper added: "To win a trophy is always good. We, the players, are the first ones who know that the season hasn't been great. It hasn't been good enough. We should have done better.

"It was always going to be difficult to repeat the 86 points of last season, as that was a massive achievement but we have had one bad season.

"English football is not easy. We were so close last season, that's why we have been so disappointed with how things have gone this season."
