James was unable to gather under pressure from Babel and Torres found the corner of the net after the ball broke to him on the edge of the area.

It was Torres' 13th goal of the season but the credit had to go to Babel for some strong running.

Torres added to his tally in the 84th minute and made it 4-1 to Liverpool with a clinical finish after he had been set up by Gerrard.

"It was a great performance from the team, especially in the first half. We looked good and created chances. But we got a bit nervous against a team with a very good away record. Torres though is always a threat. Not only that he makes room for our other players. He has a good mentality."
- Rafael Benitez

"We started poorly then got back to 2-1 and were back in the game. But then we gave away two terrible goals due to poor defending. Torres is a top striker, a fantastic player who is at another level. We've had a great run away from home and something to be proud of."
- Harry Redknapp

Liverpool 4-1 Portsmouth

Freddy Adu · 12-23-2007, 12:00 AM

Liverpool are just a point behind Sven-Goran Eriksson's side after an electric start helped them on their way to a 4-1 win over Portsmouth. Rafael Benitez's side broke the deadlock after 13 minutes as Yossi Benayoun volleyed in before Sylvain Distin's unfortunate own goal just three minutes later doubled their advantage.

Pompey gave themselves a lifeline through Benjani Mwaruwari's ninth goal of the campaign just after the break, but any hopes of salvaging a draw were ended when Fernando Torres added to his already burgeoning reputation with a classy double.
