Andy Robertson explains why he found it 'difficult' to watch World Cup games

"Difficult, not really watched it, to be honest – [I] tried to switch off from football for a couple of weeks," Andy Robertson told the official Liverpool website when asked how he found it to be watching the World Cup as an outsider.

"Slowly but surely the last couple of days [I] started watching a couple more of the games and things like that.

"I was obviously in the other part of the world where time difference was a wee bit [different], and I didn’t want to stay up and watch the games.

"I’ve watched all the games now – I want all the lads to do well. Darwin [Nunez] is already out, which is disappointing for him, but the other lads are going strong, and they look really good and their teams look really good. I want the boys here to go well.

"For Scotland it’s obviously difficult, we think we should’ve been there, but we didn’t perform the way we did in the play-off, which was disappointing from our point of view, and we have to deal with that."

Robertson's team got close to qualifying for the World Cup for the first time since 1998 but was beaten by Ukraine in the semifinal of the European playoffs.

It's not something that Liverpool fans would worry about, though, as they will expect to see a fit and rested Robertson right after the World Cup break ends.
