James Milner said Liverpool were "obviously the better team" on Wednesday despite their 0-0 draw with Real Madrid in the Champions League quarter-final, which sent them out of the competition through a 3-1 aggregate scoreline.
Searching for positives from the disappointing result, the veteran midfielder claimed similar efforts would help the Reds claim a top-four spot in the Premier League, as "the intensity and desire was good".
But Milner also stressed that Liverpool can't continue to waste their chances in front of net as they did against Real Madrid.
