West Ham United manager Slaven Bilic has praised his side's reaction to falling behind early on against Liverpool at Anfield this afternoon.
Adam Lallana put the hosts ahead after just five minutes to get his side off to a perfect start, but the Hammers had turned things around by half time courtesy of goals from Dimitri Payet and Michail Antonio.
Divock Origi struck early in the second half to rescue a point for Liverpool, but Bilic was still pleased with both the result and the performance from his side.
"I'm definitely pleased with character. We lost our last game 5-1 against Arsenal and then after a start that couldn't be worse when you concede a goal here you expect confidence to drop more," he told reporters.
"But we showed great reaction. I am very pleased with the whole 90 minutes. It was a great point for us and a positive situation before a crucial week for us.
"Now we have Burnley and Hull at home which will be extremely difficult. We have to show quality and patience."
West Ham are still only one point clear of the relegation zone, having failed to win any of their last five Premier League outings.
