Liverpool lost further ground on the leaders with a goalless draw at Middlesbrough after being denied what manager Gerard Houllier claimed was a "a cast-iron penalty."
Substitute Florent Sinama-Pongolle went down under Franck Queudrue's challenge but Liverpool's appeals were turned down.
"We had more chances than them and we had a cast-iron penalty. Queudrue did not touch the ball at all - if he had it should have been a corner," Houllier said.
