Liverpool defender
Jamie Carragher has apologised
to the club's fans around the world for last night's FA Cup
elimination by Reading.
They led 1-0 via an own goal but conceded a late penalty and
then an extra-time goal to crash out of the competition.
"It was a very bad night for Liverpool and we can't disguise that - we had to
do more against a side from a lower league," Carragher told the
Liverpool Echo.
"We have to apologise for the way we performed. We have to give
credit to Reading, hold our hands up. We all like to win but when
you don't, you have to be a good loser.
"We have to accept they deserved it. But, at the same time, we
have got to look at ourselves and the way we performed was not
acceptable.
"We've got a massive game coming up against Stoke now. It will
be very tough, as we played extra time and we have got to show
enormous character to come back.
"But that's what we have got to do. We have got to move on but,
at the same time, we have to say sorry to the fans who came to
Anfield and all those watching on TV."
