Yossi Benayoun's superb solo effort helped to keep Liverpool on
top of the Barclays Premier League after a 3-1 win at Ewood Park.
The Israel midfielder latched on to a fine ball over the top from
Dirk Kuyt in the 79th minute.
There was still worked to be done but he skipped past Stephen Warnock
before rifling a shot into the corner for his team's second.
That sealed an important victory for the reds after Xabi Alonso
had opened the scoring 11 minutes earlier.
Roque Santa Cruz got a consolation goal in the 86th minute only
for Steven Gerrard to have the last word in stoppage time.
