Heart Break: Celtic star player lost everything as the cause of fir attac in
Brendan Rodgers was delighted that his Celtic team put on another show at Ibrox and had it not been for some unfortunate defending and poor officiating AGAIN, we might have emerged with all three points on the day. Alas, it wasn’t to be and the Hoops boss, his players and the supporters of the club had to be contented with just a point for their endeavours’ at the home of their fierce rivals
That steely-determination and grit was there for all to see in Govan on Sunday lunchtime, but it was more than that that pleased the manager, whose side have come in for some considerable flak this year. After the match, a happy Rodgers said to Celtic TV: “I really enjoyed it although we’re disappointed not to win because I thought we were much the better team up until their penalty. We were the team that played the football, were controlled and some of our play in the first-half was outstanding, while dealing with the long ball that they play.’
Our gaffer was so contented with the spirit and desire his team showed in difficult circumstances after the penalty award. He continued: “They got a bit of luck for their second goal with the deflection, so it was 2-2 and the challenge was then on – do you have the heart, the desire and the will to keep going and the players were brilliant in that. They kept fighting and we got a great third goal, and looked like we could see it through, but then they scored a fantastic goal at the end.
