Liverpool boss Benitez dismisses Man Utd anger over Gerrard escape

Liverpool boss Rafa Benitez has dismissed Manchester United anger after seeing Steven Gerrard escape punishment over his clash with Portsmouth's Michael Brown.

United are upset after Rio Ferdinand was suspended for his clash with Hull City's Craig Fagan through video evidence.

"The rules are very clear and because the referee saw the incident against Portsmouth, it could not go any further," Benitez said. "These things can happen in a game and I don't think there is any frustration in Steven's play."
