Liverpool football team manager Brendan Rodgers has said that his side did not deserve their 3-2 victory over Queens Park Rangers (QPR) and they were lucky to win.
Liverpool spurned several clear chances before four goals in the last eight minutes, culminating in Steven Caulker's own goal, gave Rodgers' side a 3-2 victory at Loftus Road.
Rodgers said that QPR certainly did not deserve to lose, and added that his side was lucky to win, but they showed tremendous character. He said that QPR definitely deserved something from the game, adding that overall, his side was fortunate, The BBC reported.
Liverpool led through Richard Dunne's record 10th Premier League own goal before a breathless finale. Eduardo Vargas levelled three minutes from the end of normal time with his first QPR goal, before Philippe Coutinho drilled in Liverpool's second.
Vargas equalised again in added time before Caulker diverted a cross from Raheem Sterling into his own net.
Rodgers said that his side, which climbed to fifth, had no rhythm in the first half and there was no speed in the game. He added that Joe Allen and Philippe Coutinho coming on gave Liverpool a technical lift and they started to create more.

QPR remain bottom of the Premier League with four points from eight games with their manager Harry Redknapp describing his side's performance as the best of his tenure, but added they were naive.
Redknapp said that one needs to take the point because, in their situation, it gives them all a big lift. He added that one organises with a minute to go, thinking they would take a point, they are not going to get beat whatever happens and then to throw the result away, having worked so hard.
Redknapp said that everywhere he thought QPR was fantastic, adding that they went after Liverpool all over the park and won their battles in 90 percent of positions, but in the end they got done for being naive.
