West Ham United captain Declan Rice was left 'feeling sick' after the team's 1-0 defeat to Liverpool on Wednesday night.
The Hammers were downed by a first-half Darwin Nunez header and had an opportunity to draw level before the break. Jarrod Bowen won a penalty after involvement from VAR but his effort was saved by Alisson, who dived to his right and saved the shot.
West Ham nearly salvaged a point at the end but were thwarted by Alisson once again and last-ditch defending from James Milner.

And speaking after the final whistle, the England midfielder said that West Ham knew they were in for a difficult match but still felt 'sick' at the end of the game.
"I feel sick, I honestly feel sick. We know it is a tough place to come, you have to show grit, heart and desire," Rice told the BBC.
Manager David Moyes told the media that his side had the opportunity to get something from the game and the fact that they didn't left him disappointed.
"Disappointed in the end we didn’t come away with something, we had a real big opportunity to do so but we’ve been here a few times now and it’s been the same story," he said. "The last few times we’ve been here, it’s been the same thing. I hoped we’d be able to change it but just not quite able to get over the line against them."
