Paul Merson issues six-word reaction to Celtic’s Champions League win over RB Leipzig
Brendan Rodgers’ side went into the game knowing that they were playing against a dangerous yet wounded animal.
Yes, RB Leipzig had lost their opening three Champions League matches, but they were seeded in Pot 1 at the start of the tournament for a reason.
Added to that, Marco Rose’s side are also sitting second in the Bundesliga, so this wasn’t going to be easy and potentially very tricky to navigate.
Even though Celtic fell a goal behind and were under pressure early on in the game, as soon as Nicolas Kuhn’s curling effort levelled the scores, the home side didn’t look back and took home the points.
Celtic’s man of the moment was on fire and it wasn’t so long before he was celebrating his second goal of the match, with Reo Hatate adding a third in the second half.
Understandably so, this win from the Bhoys rightfully gathered a lot of attention and praise.
