Andy Robertson: Not our best but it's all about winning games

The Reds ground out a 1-0 victory away at Estadi Montilivi on Tuesday evening, making it six successes out of six in the league phase so far this season.

Mohamed Salah’s assured second-half penalty was the difference for Arne Slot’s men versus the La Liga side, bringing up his 50th career goal in the competition and the club’s 150th European Cup win.

Post-match, Robertson – who was named UEFA’s Player of the Match – gave his assessment of the encounter. Read the left-back’s reaction below…

**On the satisfaction of a sixth win in a row in the Champions League…**

Yeah, of course, six wins out of six – you can’t ask for much better than that. It’s not easy to do or there would be more teams doing it. Our performances have been good, we’ve won games. But we’ve played a lot better than tonight, that’s for sure, we weren’t at our highest level tonight. But at this point it’s about winning the games and securing qualification, and I think we’ve done that.

**On the level of control in Liverpool’s game…**

I think we had to be a wee bit more in control, sometimes in the first half especially it was a bit of a basketball match – back and forward – and that’s what they wanted. We left ourselves too open and gave our goalkeeper too much to do, which isn’t like us.

Our pressing and things like that were maybe a wee bit off, but then when we were on the ball we had a bit of control, we created chances and we could have scored a couple. We got a clean sheet, we won the game. We can play a lot better than we did but three points is crucial, especially away from home in the Champions League.
