Liverpool 1-1 Athletic Bilbao: Diogo Jota scores but Andy Robertson suffers as injury as Jurgen Klopp's side are held

Diogo Jota was on the scoresheet as Liverpool drew 1-1 with Athletic Bilbao in a pre-season friendly at Anfield on Sunday.

Jota found the net with an adroit finish in the 13th minute but Bilbao equalised in the second half, with Alex Berenguer scoring.

The game was overshadowed by an injury to Liverpool defender Andy Robertson, who suffered an ankle problem.

On a more positive note, Virgil van Dijk continued his comeback from injury, with the centre-back starting the game and playing 72 minutes.

In front of around 40,000 Liverpool fans, Jota put the Reds ahead having been teed up by Sadio Mane.
