Don Cowie believes Ross County’s challenge on Sunday is equivalent to what Celtic endured in their humiliating trip to Borussia Dortmund.
The Hoops, who have won all eight of their domestic games this season, suffered their first setback of the season when they were thrashed 7-1 by last season’s Champions League winners in Germany on Tuesday. Brendan Rodgers’ side is in William Hill Premiership action this weekend, traveling to a County side built on a fraction of Celtic’s resources. “Celtic will be disappointed with the result on Tuesday but they were up against top quality opposition, the Champions League finalists last season, and when you don’t quite get it right, top teams punish you,” Cowie, the Staggies manager, explained.
