Manchester United vs Liverpool

Steven Gerrard says he will celebrate if he scores a hand-ball winner for Liverpool at Old Trafford on Sunday.

There was outcry over the incident, with Suarez's integrity once again called into question, but Gerrard believes anyone in football who accuses the Uruguayan must first take a long hard look at themselves.

When asked if he would have claimed the goal if the ball had hit his hand, the straight-talking Scouser insisted: “Look, I’m not going to lie to you - of course I celebrate.

“I can’t sit here and claim I would run to the linesman or referee and say, 'I’ve hand-balled it' at Old Trafford.

Ferguson has had a calculated dig at Suarez ahead of Sunday's big match, but Gerrard is adamant the striker did nothing wrong in that incident at Mansfield and believes the South American is being condemned on his reputation alone.
