Injury Boost For Liverpool's Benitez Ahead Of Sunday’s Clash v Manchester City As Torres, Kewell & Skrtel Train

Liverpool manager Rafael Benitez has received a major boost just before going into Sunday’s home match against Manchester City, with defender Martin Skrtel as well as striker Fernando Torres returning to training today.

Skrtel had to be replaced in the first-half itself during Wednesday's Champions League Semi Final loss to Chelsea after a clash with Didier Drogba.

Torres also made his way back to the bench during extra time after he started experiencing pain in his hamstring.

Australian winger Harry Kewell also made it to training after he recovered from a groin strain which he picked up during international duty last month.

"Kewell was training today, which is positive," said Benitez.

"Fernando was also training, Skrtel part of the training session and as you already knew, Agger and Fabio Aurelio are injured, so there is no bad news."
