BBC pundit Willie Miller criticized Liverpool’s fullback and Scottish captain, Andy Robertson, for his role in one of England’s goals during Scotland’s 3-1 loss to their British rivals.
Miller pointed out Robertson’s error that led to Jude Bellingham scoring England’s second goal in the first half. He remarked, “Robertson knows he’s made an error. He’s got the ball under control. I don’t know what’s going through his mind as he passes it to Bellingham. He’s just froze and set it up so easily.”
This defeat is particularly painful for Scotland, as they have been experiencing one of their better periods in recent years. Losing to England in such a manner is disappointing, and Robertson, as the captain, will likely feel the weight of the defeat.
The Liverpool defender will view this moment as a learning experience and will need to bounce back the next time he leads Scotland on the international stage. The responsibility of the captain’s armband has never been greater for Scotland, who are on the verge of Euro qualification and finally showing cohesion as a team.
Robertson understands that he must respond strongly in the next international match, considering the promising form of the Scottish squad. With his quality and reputation, he has the ability to recover from this setback and make a significant impact for his national team.
