Andy Robertson: Liverpool defender injured during Scotland’s match against Northern Ireland

Andy Robertson was forced off with an ankle injury during Scotland’s friendly with Northern Ireland on Tuesday.

The Liverpool left-back missed 18 domestic matches across all competitions earlier this season due to a shoulder injury.

Reporting from Hampden Park, Sky Sports’ Mark Benstead: “A huge worry for Steve Clarke and Liverpool boss Jürgen Klopp- as Andy Robertson is forced off.

“A hefty challenge by Trai Hume left Jim clutching his left ankle – he tried to carry on but couldn’t.

“That could be massive ahead of the Euros and in the Premier League title race.”

Robertson’s Liverpool team-mate, Conor Bradley, scored Northern Ireland’s opening goal at Hampden Park.

An exhilarating race for the Premier League title continues on Sky Sports in April with league leaders Liverpool heading to Manchester United – Jurgen Klopp’s final visit to Old Trafford as Reds boss in the Premier League – on Sunday April 7; kick-off 3.30pm.
