ReactionAndy Robertson's assessment of Reds' defeat by Real Madrid
The Reds were beaten at Stade de France in Paris by Vinicius Junior's 59th-minute finish, having been denied on multiple occasions by in-form Real stopper Thibaut Courtois.
Read on for Robertson's post-match interview with BT Sport...
On the disappointment in the dressing room...
Obviously it's quiet, devastated – that's what happens when you come to finals and don't win. We had chances, we came up against an unbelievable goalie tonight, he pulled off some unbelievable saves. But if we're being honest as well, I think we could have played a bit better, especially second half. I thought first half we played well, we were in control, we were the ones kind of pushing. Second half, we didn't start great, they started getting a hold of the game a bit more. When you come up against an experienced team, they know how to win finals. Once they got their noses in front, they showed that.

On Real's threat on the counter-attack...
We're a pressing team, we try to press from the front and it's worked so much for us this season, in all seasons and things like that. We were trying to win the ball high up and obviously they've ended up breaking down and then we've been caught at the back post and next minute it's in the back of your net. That's football for you and you have to deal with that. Obviously it's hard to get back into the game when you're playing against a very experienced team in these finals and things like that, they know exactly how to see out a game. We had our chances but it just wasn't meant to be.
