Andy Robertson has weighed in on the incident involving Sergio Ramos & Mohamed Salah, and he's spoken with a lot of sense.
With just 30 minutes on the clock in the Champions League final, Liverpool were dealt a massive, massive blow.
Salah landed awkwardly on his shoulder after tangling with the Real Madrid captain, and was subsequently hauled off while leaving the field in tears in a heartbreaking moment.

Liverpool fans were outraged who felt it was done on purpose.
A petition has since surfaced asking FIFA & UEFA to 'punish Ramos for intentionally hurting Salah', and it's already surpassed 100,000, and counting, signatures.
However, one particular member of the Liverpool camp isn't holding Ramos accountable.

Robertson refuses to pin the blame on the Spanish defender, while even calling him 'quite clever'.
"Think it is just how he (Salah) has landed but Ramos is quite clever, isn't he?" He told BBC.
"We are clutching at straws if we are saying that. It's unfortunate. It just disrupted our rhythm a wee bit."
It appeared Salah was set to miss the World Cup.

Though positive reports have emerged from Egypt which suggest the PFA Player of the Year will indeed represent his country in Russia.
And the young Scottish international is hoping he makes it to the World Cup.
"He has done unbelievable this season and for it to end that way for him was devastating. I hope he goes to the World Cup because a nation is a relying on him.

"Hopefully he'll come back bigger and stronger," he added.
Spoken with a lot of maturity.
