Simon Mignolet has praised his Liverpool teammates after they "fought really hard" for victory against Burnley in the Premier League.
Raheem Sterling scored the only goal in the 1-0 win at Turf Moor, leaving Brendan Rodgers's side ninth in the table ahead of Monday's match against Swansea City.
The goalkeeper told the Liverpool Echo: "We got what we came for and that's the three points so we're very . We did the ugly bits of the game well and fought really hard as a team.
"At half time we were able to go in and settle. It was still 0-0 and then obviously we did the job in the second half.
"Coming here to Burnley, we knew it was going to be tough. It's a difficult ground to come to and it was always going to be a battle. All that mattered was getting the three points and we've done that."
Mignolet returned to action during the match after Brad Jones was forced off with a thigh injury.
