Andrew Robertson: Injuries in Manchester United Match 'Killed Our Momentum'

Liverpool defender Andrew Robertson has said an unusual amount of first-half injuries and substitutions affected his team-mates against Manchester United on Sunday.

The Reds played out a goalless draw at Old Trafford in the Premier League after United were forced to make three changes before half-time.

Liverpool also suffered a significant blow when Roberto Firmino was subbed due to injury after 30 minutes.

Speaking to Liverpool's official website, Robertson said the Merseyside giants wanted a victory but were content with a point after failing to pressurise United goalkeeper David De Gea:

"I thought we started really well and we had the momentum, we were driving forward, but we just didn’t create great chances.
