‘Shocking’: Neil Lennon and Stan Petrov are now furious with the Celtic vs Lazio match officials
Last night’s defeat to Lazio was a really sore one for the Celtic fans to take. A list minute goal by Pedro broke 60,000 hearts at Paradise as the Hoops slumped to their second defeat in the group stages.
They were both asked on post-match if the challenge on Celtic midfielder, Reo Hatate, should have been looked at by the officials and they were both in agreement.
Here is what the two Celtic legends said:
Petrov: “Of cours🉐e. For me, I do believe this should be looked at 🐈and it was definitely a red card. You can see the intention there.
“You can see the player knows what exactly he’s doing and it definitely has 💖to be looked at.”
Lennon: “Shocking. It’s shocking.ꦜ The more you look a🍸t it, the more I think it’s a red card. It’s a forearm in Hatate’s face.
“As Stiliyan says, he knows exactly what he’s doing. For me, it maꦦy have be💖en accidental, but it’s still reckless.
“And then when they see it from that angle, it’sᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚ𒀱ᩚᩚᩚ a red card. So what they’re looking at I don’t know.”
Another hard luck story in Europe for Celtic
The 🐬long and short of it? Celtic were just not good🐬 enough to beat Lazio last night. The team played very well so there is still a lot to be positive about.
But the qual💯ity in the final third was lacking. The final ball and delivery let Ce𝓡ltic down last night and that is a lesson that Brendan Rodgers will need to take heed of heading into the January window.
Celtic are three players from bei🌼ng able to compete at this level. Quality must be brought in to help future European progress as it already 𝓀looks too late this season.
The Celtic fans can be immensely proud of what they saw last night. Liam Scales, Matt O’Riley and Nat Phillips played extremely well. At least that bodes well for the resꩲt of the campaign.
