ROBERTSON AIMS DIG AT NEYMAR

-

LIVERPOOL defender Andy Robertson has vented his frustratio­n at Neymar’s part in his team’s 2-1 defeat in the Champions League yesterday.

While the Reds were not at their best against the French champions, they were not helped by some of PSG’s theatrical play at times. Robertson questioned PSG’s “gamesmansh­ip” and criticised Neymar for over-acting throughout the contest.

“I suppose they were in the lead and they were looking to waste time. You can use gamesmansh­ip, play-acting, you can use it all really,” Robertson told Sky Sports.

“I would like to know how much time they wasted tonight. It’s frustratin­g when (Neymar) is falling like he is. It’s all part and parcel of his game and we needed to deal with that. We didn’t quite control our aggression… it was frustratin­g.

“But when you play against PSG you know it is something you are going to come up against especially with him. It wasn’t something we quite dealt with.” – Daily Star
