Liverpool 2-1 Southampton: Report, result, goals as Robertson rues Ekitike red card 'stupidity' in EFL Cup
"The first one was stupidity."
"Scoring a goal is always emotional but he's obviously forgotten he's been booked. It's silly but he's only young and he'll learn from it. I'm sure he won't do it again."
"It was funny... got to be fit. I feel good - I feel fit. It was good to get minutes but it's a competitive game so the main aim is to win."
Hugo Ekitike came on at half-time as a substitute for Alexander Isak and scored, but received a second yellow card for removing his shirt after already being booked for kicking the ball away, leading to his dismissal. Andy Robertson described the initial caution as "stupidity," called the shirt removal "silly," and said Ekitike is young and will learn from the incident. Alexander Isak opened the scoring two minutes before half-time and has been building match fitness after a protracted move, with Liverpool managing his minutes while aiming to win competitive matches.
