After a string of losses, Liverpool ended their losing streak in all competitions with a resounding 5-1 victory over Eintracht Frankfurt in the third round of the 2025/26 UEFA Champions League. Liverpool vice-captain Robertson expressed his delight at the team's command of the game and the players' hard work and mentality paying off.

During the game, Christensen scored in the 26th minute to give Frankfurt a 1-0 lead. In the 35th minute, Robertson assisted Ekitik to score a goal, helping Liverpool equalize the score at 1-1.

In the 39th minute, Gakpo took a corner kick, and Van Dijk jumped up to head the ball into the goal, helping Liverpool to overtake 2-1. In the 44th minute, Soboslai assisted Konate to score with a header from a corner kick, helping Liverpool to continue to lead Frankfurt 3-1.

With Wirtz assisting Gakpo and Soboslai to score against Frankfurt in the second half, Liverpool finally won 5-1 away.

Liverpool defender Robertson said, "When you are in the trough of losing streak, like we were before, winning is the most important thing no matter what. We not only won the game, but also played as we should. The coach emphasized before the game that the focus should be on performance and doing every link well. As long as you do this, the results will naturally appear."

"Although we conceded a goal first, I felt the team's reaction was very good. We didn't panic, which is a problem that many teams tend to have when they're on a losing streak. We reacted very well and didn't look back after taking the lead. We continued to control the game in the second half, playing very organized and performing very well. In fact, we could have scored more goals. I felt that the opponent had almost no chances in the second half, which was also very satisfying."

Liverpool will face Brentford in the Premier League

Robertson added: "We were very good in possession. Jones was outstanding in midfield. He and Szoboslai both played well. And Wirtz is becoming more and more confident in his free role. He also played very well. The combination of these three players was very good, which helped us control the tempo well."

"We also defended well in the backcourt, preventing the opponent's counterattack, and constantly looking for passing opportunities and controlling the ball. I think we did a good job overall. But this is just a victory. We know there is still a lot of work to do. We must continue to work hard and push each other, and keep moving forward."

In addition, Liverpool will travel to Brentford in the next round of the Premier League, and Slaughter's team will face former Liverpool captain Henderson in this key match.

Robertson said: "It is always difficult to play Brentford away. This is always a tough opponent, especially when we have to face our former captain Henderson. He has made a huge contribution to Liverpool and he is a true legend. He led us to win the long-awaited Premier League title and also lifted the Champions League trophy."

"He's gone to Brentford and he's been performing at a high level game after game and our midfield has to be at full strength because I'm sure Henderson will be at full strength."
