The Liverpool left-back got the better of his Tottenham Hotspur counterpart yesterday.
Alan Shearer suggested that Liverpool ace Andy Robertson ‘ran riot’ against Tottenham man Kieran Trippier yesterday, when writing his regular column for the Sun.
The Reds ran out as 2-1 winners against Spurs in the end, and despite dominating the first-half, they can actually consider themselves lucky to have taken maximum points from the contest.
Robertson has been a key player for Liverpool, since moving to Anfield from Hull City for around £8 million in the summer of 2017, and he was on his best form once more against Tottenham yesterday.
The Scotland international gave Spurs right-back Trippier a torrid afternoon, especially during the first-half, and Shearer explained how the Liverpool man played a key role in his side’s victory, when writing his regular column for the Sun:
“Andy Robertson was running riot down the left-hand side and the Spurs wing-backs couldn’t get out. That left Robertson to come forward and he put in a brilliant cross for Roberto Firmino to head in the opener.”
Next up for Liverpool is a trip to Southampton on Friday night, whilst Tottenham play host to Crystal Palace on Wednesday, and both teams will be desperate to win their respective games, for very different reasons.
