20 Sept 2006 Liverpool 2-0 Newcastle - EPLBBC - Kuyt ended Liverpool's five-hour goal drought when he slid in to convert Steve Finnan's cross after Alonso's exquisite pass had created the chance. And after the break, Alonso produced another moment of brilliance when he shot from inside his own half to leave the slipping Steve Harper groping air. Luis Garcia had earlier hit the post as Liverpool dominated poor opposition.
Rafa: "It was good for me and the supporters to see the team playing well, creating chances and scoring goals. It was good to keep a clean sheet and if we keep clean sheets and continue to play good offensive football then we will win a lot of games. I thought we deserved to win by more goals but to win 2-0 as well as a very good performance was a good night for us. It was funny because before Xabi decided to shoot for goal I was ready to shout at him because Gerrard had made a good run down the right side. Xabi has got great vision and it was a great goal. It didn't surprise me because he practices that in training a lot."
