Andy Robertson slaps Ben Doak in training, he immediately regretted it

Andy Robertson jokingly slapped teammate Ben Doak in Liverpool training and immediately regretted his actions in a hilarious moment.

Robertson and Doak trained in Liverpool this week ahead of flying out to Austria for tonight's Europa League clash against LASK.

The Scottish left-back, who scored in his side's 3-1 win over Wolves last weekend, is set to be rested for their opening European match of the season.

Doak, on the other hand, could be in line for a spot in the XI as Jurgen Klopp may make wholesale changes.

But Robertson and Doak trained together and were involved in a brilliant exchange in training.

A video shows the 29-year-old 'slapping' his 17-year-old counterpart.

Robertson accidentally landed a stinging slap on Doak and immediately regretted his strike. He cut a shocked figure and apologised straight away. Check it out below:

Doak could feature for Liverpool against LASK, having impressed for Scotland in an U21s game against Spain earlier this month.

He's already made an impression among his teammates, with Virgil van Dijk speaking glowingly about the budding star.

"I remember when he came on against Villa away last year, and he did that stepover and went past the full back," he said.

"He’s very exciting, very direct, one-on-one. I call him a Tasmanian Devil with the way he is buzzing around, he’s just so quick. If his decision making gets better - and he has all the time in the world for that - then he could definitely be one for the future."
