Liverpool 2-0 Wolves: The pressure lifted



espnstar.com
Liverpool scrambled their way to a much-needed win as the pressure lifted from the Anfield club.

But it was never going to be simple against an organised Wolves side, with the points only being secured after the Midlanders were reduced to 10 men when defender Stephen Ward was sent-off.

Even that was a bizarre decision, with referee Andre Marriner at first getting the wrong man, booking Christophe Berra before his error was pointed out by a pack of Liverpool players who made sure that Ward was punished for a second bookable offence.

From that point Liverpool took over, and goals from Steven Gerrard - only his fifth of the season - and a deflected Yossi Benayoun effort gave them victory.

Italian midfielder Alberto Aquilani was finally included in a Liverpool league starting line-up, his previous apperances having been from the bench.
