Liverpool midfielder Thiago Alcantara was delighted to score in victory over Southampton.
The No.6 curled home a fine Kop-end finish late on to seal Saturday's 2-0 victory over Southampton – a win that moves the Reds to within six points of fourth-placed Leicester City, over whom they hold a game in hand.
Thiago told Sky Sports: “I always try to bring out the reality - we are for sure not happy with the situation right now, but for the mood [and] for the confidence for the next game, we are very happy with the win.
“It's always a great moment when you score and also help the team, but as I said, we have to keep fighting until the end. We have this small chance [to qualify for the Champions League].
“We try to be as objective as possible. There is a very small chance, but I think we had chances in the past. The door sometimes closed for us but the window is open, so we try to get through the window!
“It's an amazing feeling [to score] but the most important thing is the three points and that we keep fighting for this small miracle that we can have."
