Liverpool's late collapse in Lyon indicates their manager's ability to conjure life-affirming results is over As the ball exploded from Ryan Babel's right boot last night, it looked as though Liverpool were about to produce another of those improbable resurrections with which the reign of Rafael Benítez has been studded.
