Simon Mignolet: 'Still all to play for in Europa League'

Liverpool goalkeeper Simon Mignolet insists that his side are still very much in their Europa League semi-final with Villarreal despite a first-leg defeat.

Liverpool goalkeeper Simon Mignolet has insisted that it is still all to play for in his side's Europa League semi-final against Villarreal.

The Reds looked to have earned a draw in the first leg at El Madrigal this evening, but a late goal from Adrian Lopez saw Villarreal gain a 1-0 advantage at the halfway stage of the tie.

Despite the result, Mignolet was happy with the team's performance and believes that the fans can spur them on to success at Anfield next week.

"I think we played a good game. Everyone saw Villarreal's quality but we had some chances to score," Mignolet told BT Sport.

"It didn't happen but we still have it all to play for. It was a very tactical game. They were tough to break down but with the fans behind us it is there to play for at home."

Liverpool are bidding to reach their first European final since 2007.
