It’s been a game partly defined by fullbacks after Andy Robertson almost helped Liverpool on to a lead-doubler in the second half against Manchester City.
Trent Alexander-Arnold had Anfield up on its feet with a sensational ball over the top of the vistors’ backline – a pre-assist that was matched in quality by Mo Salah’s ball to Cody Gakpo.
A moment that will understandably have everyone wondering how on earth the Egyptian didn’t manage to sink his one-v-one against Stefan Ortega in the second 45!
Take a bow, Andy Robertson
Credit where credit is due to our Scotland international. The left-back has faced a fair amount of critique over his performance levels in 2024/25, but his latest outing against our title rivals surely proves his ongoing worth to this backline.
The former Hull City star will have had City hearts in mouths with a world-class through ball that found Cody Gakpo free to engage Ortega.
Really, the Dutchman should have absolutely buried his effort against the backup City shotstopper!
