Richard Keys has backed up Roy Keane’s comments that Andy Robertson behaved like a “big baby” and said he hopes linesman Constantine Hatzidakis escapes punishment for elbowing the Liverpool defender.
Robertson was caught by Hatzidakis during a confrontation at half-time of Liverpool’s 2-2 draw with Arsenal on Sunday in the Premier League. The assistant referee has since been suspended from officiating duties while the FA investigates the incident.
The incident has sparked a wider debate about abuse of officials, while Robertson’s behaviour has also been questioned. Keane suggested that the Liverpool left-back had started things by approaching Hatzidakis and called him a “big baby” for reacting in the way he did.
