The Irishman was over the moon at the gutsy Hoops display as they picked up a point
Beaming Brendan Rodgers saluted his brave Celtic players for bouncing back from their Borussua Dortmund battering to battle their way to a point in Bergamo against Europa League champions Atalanta.
Celtic are now well on course for a play off spot and Rodgers told TNT Sport: “It felt great. I said before the game we knew the level we were playing against. We were playing against the team that’s the highest goal scorers in Italian football and one of the favourites for this competition and the players had the courage to stand up to the fight and right to the very end. To keep a clean sheet was a brilliant defensive performance.
“It was making sure we had the same mentality, same courage, and I felt we also carried a threat when we had the ball. Our inexperience at this level shows at times when we’re hurried and give it away too cheaply but it’s step by step.
