'All of a sudden the lights came on and it was 6am!': Robbo recalls partying with Kenny Dalglish after UCL triumph in Madrid

Speaking to BBC, Andy Robertson recalled celebrations after Liverpool defeated Tottenham in the Champions League final in Madrid last year - looks like it was a hell of a party!

"All of a sudden the lights came on and it was 6am," Robbo said.

"I was talking to Kenny Dalglish, he was getting ushered away by his wife because they had a flight to catch. Me and Adam Lallana stayed up because our wake-up call was half eight so it was pointless going to sleep.

"We had our friends and families there - it was an amazing night. It was a very different feeling to the year before!

"We never had a party in Kyiv, just flew straight back and I never got the silver medal out of the drawer until the day after winning in Madrid. That was the first time I looked at it.

"It wasn't until the Monday night, after the parade, that everything came out. I was really emotional, texting all the players, texting all the staff."

Last term, Liverpool won their first big trophy under Jurgen Klopp beating the likes of Bayern Munich, Barcelona and Tottenham on the way to European glory. This season, there is a bigger one out there for the taking. The Premier League season is expected to resume in June and the Reds are just six points away from the title.
