Robertson criticises Atletico players for ‘falling over’ as Liverpool lose in Madrid

Liverpool left-back Andy Robertson has hit out at Atletico Madrid’s players for ‘falling over’ following the Reds’ 1-0 defeat in the Spanish capital.

Jurgen Klopp’s men dominated the ball but failed to register a single shot on target in the contest and must now make amends at Anfield.

Scotland captain Robertson, however, was not pleased with the manner in which the Rojiblancos players conducted themselves, perceiving them to have been timewasting after their early goal.

“The throw in before the corner should have gone to us so the officials made a mistake there, but their [goal from the] corner is just a ricochet,” Robertson said after the game.
