Liverpool fullback Robertson: Fighting sprit alive and well

Andy Robertson has hailed Liverpool's fighting spirit following Sunday's dramatic 2-1 win over Tottenham Hotspur.

The Scotsman was terrific as Toby Alderweireld's late own goal sealed the Reds victory, their third with a winning goal in the 90th minute or later.

Robertson said: "I think it comes from the whole squad having the right attitude and belief that we are good enough to win any game.

"We know we've got the energy, we know we've got the heart to go right until the end in every single game. Our fitness levels are the best they should be at this point of the season, so we know we can go right to the end.

"Sometimes you just need that bit of luck and we got it but even when we were going through the tough times in the second half, we still believed we were going to win the game and that's the mentality we have.

"Looking at the league table that's all that matters. Performances don't really matter at this point of the season as long as we win."
