Robbie Keane went agonisingly close to firing Liverpool ahead in their Champions League clash at Anfield.
Midfielder Xabi Alonso picked out the Rebublic of Ireland striker with a sublime 50-yard pass but Keane shot wide of Leo Franco's post.
Liverpool had claims for a penalty waved away in the first minute when defender Daniel Agger went down under a challenge from Rodriguez Maxi.
