John Carver has played down injury fears regarding Andrew Robertson after the Scotland captain was led away from training in Bavaria on Monday morning. Carver, the assistant manager, insisted the medical team were being “extra cautious” with Robertson because of the disruption that has already hit the squad.
Physios raced on to the pitch in Garmisch‑Partenkirchen during a box drill session after an apparently innocuous incident involving the 30-year-old. The Liverpool left-back was taken away for immediate treatment, leading to fears he could become the latest Scot to be forced out of the European Championship. Robertson appeared in good spirits when speaking to backroom staff shortly after, with Carver similarly upbeat when addressing the media.
