When the whole second half is played in the Pool half but they are unable to create a decent chance then it's a blown chance.
Two average teams as far as creating chance go, one a lot more dominant in midfield. The only difference is a garbage set piece goal.
Be happy with your 3 points but I wouldn't delude yourself that that was anywhere close to a half decent performance.

Calling it a blown chance usually suggests that they actually had some chances. Creating chances is the name of the game, and when one team can't create any, the other team should get credit for preventing them from doing so. Liverpool weren't great today, but they did well by not giving up many good chances against.
