Liverpool left-back Andy Robertson appears to have deactivated his Twitter account following the Reds’ 2-0 defeat at Napoli on Tuesday.
The Scot gave away a late penalty when he was adjudged to have fouled Jose Callejon in the box, with Dries Mertens slotting home from the spot.
Former Swansea and Tottenham forward Fernando Llorente then nipped in ahead of Robertson to seal victory for the home side in stoppage time.
Reds boss Jurgen Klopp hit out at the decision to award the the penalty – and the failure to overturn it through VAR – after the game, although former Premier League referee Mark Clattenburg has claimed it was the right decision .
“But we can not do anything about it now. We have to accept it. They will find a reason to say it was the right decision, and we have to accept it.”
Robertson only played in the game in Naples after passing a late fitness test, and now a search for his Twitter account ‘@andrewrobertso5’ shows up no results, although his Instagram account is still online at the time of writing.
Reds fans have been quick to condemn supporters who criticised Robertson online, pointing to them as the reason behind his decision to seemingly come off Twitter.
The Scotland captain also received criticism for his performances for his country during the international break, after which he claimed he “locked himself away” to avoid it prior to Liverpool’s game against Newcastle last weekend.
