BUDAPEST, Hungary (AP) Liverpool defeated Debrecen 1-0 but failed to qualify for the Champions League knockout stage as Fiorentina secured the last qualification spot in Group E with a victory over Lyon on Tuesday.

"I'm very disappointed because we had chances in all the games," said Liverpool manager Rafa Benitez. "We have to be disappointed but at least we won. We did our job today."

David Ngog scored in the fourth minute, his tap-in from three meters deflecting in off the post after Jamie Carragher headed the ball back across the box.
