Sadio Mane bagged a fine brace and Virgil van Dijk added a third to dump Bayern out.But the Reds superb evening was slightly spoiled by a late yellow card to key defender Robertson.The Scottish full-back was impressive throughout the match, as he has been all season, but his performance was marred when he picked up a caution for an ill-timed challenge on Leon Goretzka in the 92nd minute. It was his third yellow of the tournament and he will now be suspended for the first-leg of Liverpools quarter-final clash.To add to Liverpools frustrations, yellow cards are wiped after the Round of 16 but that wont help Robertson now.He will be able to return for the second-leg but itll leave Jurgen Klopp with a big headache as they strive to reach the semi-finals again.Joe Gomez may be fit when Liverpool return to European duty next month but his long-term injury will likely mean he wont be fully match ready.Andy Robertson will miss the first-leg of Liverpools Champions League quarter-final tie2

The Reds also have Alberto Moreno while Fabinho could fill in at full-back. A defensive reshuffle could also see Dejan Lovren come in and Joel Matip switch to a wider position.But Robertsons fine form this season will mean his absence is a big blow.Liverpool will find out their opponents for the Champions League quarter-finals in the draw on Friday.
