The former Hull City man opened the scoring for his side.

On the back of Liverpool's UEFA Champions League victory, left-back Andrew Robertson scored a screamer for Scotland, against Cyprus, during Euro 2020 qualifying. The Scottish skipper is currently being heralded as one of the best wing-backs to have graced modern football.

Under new gaffer Steve Clarke, the tireless full-back scored via a fabulous strike, an hour after kick-off. Robertson opened the scoring for Scotland, while Ionnis Kousoulos equalised for the opponents. Substitute Oliver Burke scored the winner for Scotland.
