Birmingham City manager Steve Bruce has already turned his attentions back to the Coca-Cola Championship fter watching his side go out of the Carling Cup thanks to a single goal from Dan Agger.
Bruce said: "We had two or three good opportunities - you have to take them but Maik Taylor kept us in it with the penalty save.
Blues' Mehdi Nafti showed his frustration when being replaced by Fabrice Muamba - heading straight for the dressing room and kicking an advertising hoarding before disappearing down the tunnel.
And Bruce continued: "He was disappointed but we'll deal with him over the next 24 hours.
"There's always something going on - but it doesn't worry me at all."
Last night's result ended a run of five successive wins in all competitions - and Bruce's men return to Coca-Cola Championship action with successive home games against Barnsley and Wolverhampton Wanderers in their quest for promotion back to the Barclays Premiership.
Bruce added: "The league is the bread and butter - a cup run is lovely for everybody but we've got a couple of huge games coming up at home now."
Liverpool manager Rafael Benitez has concerns over Mohamed Sissoko, who suffered a suspected dislocated shoulder.
