Liverpool left-back Andy Robertson was trying to act hard during his side’s win over Atletico Madrid last night – that was until he met a real gangster.

Robertson, undeniably one of the best left-backs in the game, played the full 90 minutes for Liverpool as they triumphed over Spanish champions Atletico.

While the Scotsman is a fantastic footballer and is mostly renowned for his ability with a ball at his feet, he’s also a bit of a sh*thouse, as he attempted to show last night at the Wanda Metropolitano.

After two-goal Antoine Griezmann was sent off for a high, high boot, Robertson appeared to taunt the Frenchman by starring him down from just yards away.

Robbo’s behaviour clearly wasn’t appreciated by Griezmann’s Atleti teammate Mario Hermoso, who BARGED into the full-back and sent him flying backwards out of shot.

He didn’t see it coming, couldn’t brace for impact and was left with egg on his face as a result. Fantastic!
