After playing so well for 85 minutes the Trotters deserved a point from a game that lacked chances. We defended well and had a few opportunities to claim victory ourselves.
But it was lucky Liverpool who claimed the win after Fernando Torres's backheel found Rodriguez who poked the ball past Jaaskelainen in the dying minutes.
"I don't think we deserved to lose the game," said Owen Coyle after the game. "The margins in the Premier League are very fine.
"Having said that, we had opportunities ourselves before the goal.
“I felt that the effort and the application from the players was first-class.
"I thought we dominated the game for large periods and there were a couple of decisions I thought we may have got.”
