Ange Postecoglou could sense Celtic mistake and admitted 'If it wasn't Joe Hart it would have been somebody else'

Joe Hart held his hands up for the horror error that cost dearly Celtic in Leipzig. And manager Ange Postecoglou admitted after the loss there could be more devastating news with fears over a serious knee injury for skipper Callum McGregor.

Hart’s big blunder with the Champions League Group F encounter balanced at 1-1 led to the hosts regaining their lead through Portuguese striker Andre Silva and going onto a success. The 35-year-old keeper made no attempt to hide from the nightmare, but insists the risk-and-reward style brings more rewards than setbacks.

Hart said: “I am at fault for the second goal. No doubt about it. But that’s the way the manager wants us to play and that is how we play. Sometimes it is going to hurt us. But most of the time, as we showed, it works to get us through the press and get opportunities to score.
