Alexander-Arnold provided the pass for Sadio Mane’s match-winning goal in the 27th minute, marking his 16th assist of the 2021/22 campaign.
It was a personal landmark for the 23-year-old, who has recorded more assists than in any other Premier League season.
However, Robertson believed that the pass was a complete fluke.
During a post-match interview with Sky Sports, he said: “That was a mis-hit shot wasn’t it?
“But they all count!”
Alexander-Arnold continued to say: “I try and contribute as much as I can to the team, I think we both do.
