Benitez was furious with referee Phil Dowd for turning down two late penalty appeals.
Dowd ruled that Assou-Ekotto's barge on Andriy Voronin and Fernando Torres cross which hit Assou-Ekotto on the arm were not spot-kicks.
However, I still feel that that Liverpool deserved nothing from this match.
Spurs moved the ball better and were quick to regain their lead shortly after Gerrard's equaliser.
Spurs boss Harry Redknapp has built some quality in the squad and they really played well against one of the title hopefuls.
Well done, Tottenham!
