loss to Rangers at Ibrox.After a disheartening 3-0 loss to Rangers at Ibrox, Celtic’s Scottish Premiership unbeaten streak was terminated, and the morning following the previous night was not a pleasant one.

 

 

Brendan Rodgers may derive comfort from the fact that his team maintains a double-digit points advantage over their opponents; however, the Bhoys were significantly inferior to their opponents and suffered as a result.

 

 

The Scottish Premiership champions appeared uncommonly sluggish against a side they have defeated twice this term, and nobody earned pass marks in Celtic’s defeat to Rangers, without stating the obvious too much.

 

 

Anomalies may occur on Derby Day. Celtic was unable to attend and was confronted with a challenging challenge in the absence of any away support.

 

 

 

Nevertheless, the level of performance that was demonstrated was unacceptable to supporters and has caused them to become frustrated. After the match, Rodgers disclosed the reason why he did not implement any modifications at the half-time siren, despite the fact that several Celtic players failed to meet their usual high standards.

 

 

Ultimately, the visitors’ patterns of play were not significantly affected by the alterations, and Celtic will revisit the drawing board in anticipation of their game against St Mirren at home this weekend.

 

 

 

Brendan Rodgers regrets Celtic’s lack of intensity during their match against Rangers. The manager, who was still expressing his frustration, explicitly stated that Celtic were “slack” in possession and acknowledged that they had lost the midfield battle.

 

 

 

He continued, “Indeed, we were unable to manage the midfield.” Additionally, there are an excessive number of idle passes. As previously mentioned, our possession game has been exceptionally strong for an extended period. And with that, you are granted the opportunity to penetrate.

 

 

 

However, I believed that we handed the ball away too easily today. “In both situations, we were under pressure and not under pressure.” We were attempting to send the ball out. Therefore, it is one of those games that you must examine.

Celtic’s hectic schedule continues with their upcoming match against St Mirren at Parkhead. After what is hoped to be a minor blemish on an otherwise exceptional season, supporters will expect a response.
