On Tuesday night, Celtic manager Martin O'Neill and his team were deeply disappointed with their loss in Austria. Despite this setback, the manager emphasized the need to move forward quickly. Celtic will face Falkirk at home this weekend, aiming to secure a third consecutive win in the Premiership. O'Neill acknowledged that while they might have been out of sight by halftime, they failed to perform well in the second half.
He also mentioned that a minor adjustment in the 90th minute might have helped, but ultimately, the team's overall performance was the issue. The manager revealed that a loss can be as significant a low as winning the league, and it's essential to process the disappointment. O'Neill discussed the game with his players, urging them to focus on their upcoming matches, particularly the EuroLeague games against Marseille and Benfica.
He highlighted the importance of displaying great character during these upcoming games, as Falkirk were a formidable opponent last season.
