Liverpool fullback Andrew Robertson hailed Roberto Firmino's vision as "frightening" after a world-class display in Liverpool's 3-1 win over Newcastle.

Liverpool went a goal behind against the Magpies at Anfield but turned the game around before the half time break.

Scotland left-back Robertson said the Reds had some rustiness to shake off following the international break, and hailed Firmino's creativity in setting up Mohamed Salah to score for helping Liverpool get back into the match.

"It was a special goal. Bobby's vision is frightening and Mo's finished it off. 3-1 after a tough international break is always a good result," said Robertson.

"We didn't start the game the way we wanted to and to be fair to Newcastle they started brightly and scored a hell of a goal.

"That gave us the wake up call we needed and afterwards I think we kicked into gear and were too good for them.

"We need to be quicker getting back into our rhythm [after international breaks] or against teams in the top six we might struggle to get back into the game if we give away a goal."
