Brendan Rodgers: 'Liverpool will keep chasing'

Liverpool manager Brendan Rodgers has vowed that his team will keep "chasing right to the end" in their bid for Champions League qualification.

The Reds moved up to fifth place in the Premier League table on Sunday with a 2-1 victory at home to champions Manchester City.

With Liverpool's unbeaten run now at 11 games in the league, Rodgers is confident that his players will keep fighting for a top-four finish.

"It's tight. Arriving in there has always been our objective," he is quoted as saying by BBC Sport. "We want to keep chasing right to the end. Every game is super competitive and every team has got quality. We are going into every game respecting the opponent but believing we can win."

Liverpool continue their Premier League campaign on Wednesday when they welcome Burnley to Anfield.
