Ludogrets 2 Liverpool 2. A 2-2 draw against the team lying second in the Bulgarian football league might not sound like the kind of result to galvanise struggling Liverpool, but manager Brendan Rodgers claimed his side's peformance against Ludogrets Razgrad has the capacity to "change our season".

The Reds were unlucky not to beat the Bulgarians, but were thwarted by a late equaliser from Georgi Terziev. But at least the draw ended a run of four successive defeats and ensured they would not lose five in a row for the first time in 61 years.
