Liverpool left back and Scotland captain Andy Robertson apologised to the Tartan Army after the nation’s World Cup dreams were shattered by Ukraine at Hampden Park.
Goals from Andriy Yarmalenko and Roman Yaremchuk gave the visitors a 2-0 half-time lead and although Callum McGregor pulled one back 11 minutes from time, a below-par Scotland were unable to find the equaliser before a late breakaway Artem Dovbyk sealed the result.
Ukraine will now progress to the World Cup play-off final against Wales in Cardiff on Sunday, leaving Steve Clarke’s side to pick themselves up for next week’s Nations League fixtures against Armenia, home and away, either side of a trip to Dublin to face Republic of Ireland.
Andy Robertson has been through it recently. Loosing the Premier League on the final day, lost in the UCL final against Madrid now knocked out the World Cup qualifier against Ukraine
Andy Robertson: “Personally, it’s been the toughest 10 days of my football career, of course it has been. Emotionally, mentally, physically, everything. So it’s not been great.”
Rest up mate. It’s been a long season
