In the 19th minute of this evening’s big Premier League encounter between Arsenal and Liverpool, Andy Robertson sparked an opportunity for the Reds by battling to win a header from a Gunners goal kick.
The full-back displayed his trademark tenacity as he continued to surge down the left-flank, where he was slipped in by a pinpoint through ball from Roberto Firmino.
The Scotsman looked up and spotted Sadio Mane’s run into the box before picking out the ace with a low cross, the superstar forward slid the ball into the back of the net with a tidy finish.
Take a look at the Senegalese star’s opener below:
