Liverpool 1-3 Swansea: Rodgers admits best team won

Liverpool manager Brendan Rodgers admits Swansea City were the better team as they beat Liverpool 3-1 at Anfield to reach the quarter-finals of the League Cup for the first time in their history.

Liverpool trailed at the break thanks to Chico Flores's powerful header before Swansea struck again as Nathan Dyer made it 2-0.

Luis Suarez glanced in Steven Gerrard's free-kick four minutes later to cut the deficit but Jonathan De Guzman struck in injury-time to ensure a famous victory for the Swans.
