Five years ago Andy Robertson lost a Scottish third division match in front of 242 fans... Liverpool left-back jokes that knocking Manchester City out of Europe is a 'bit better result'

Andrew Robertson responded to a tweet illustrating his remarkable rise from footballing obscurity to the dizzy heights of a Champions League semi final.

He wrote: 'Bit better result tonight', in reply to screenshots of a 2-0 defeat by Annan when the Scot was playing for Queen's Park five years ago.

Only 242 spectators watched Robertson in that Scottish third division clash but now the fullback will have the eyes of the world trained on him when Liverpool play in the last four of Europe's showpiece club competition.
