Ange Postecoglou vows that Celtic will come back stronger as he challenges players to become Champions League regulars

ANGE POSTECOGLOU has urged his Celtic players to come back stronger in next season’s Champions League, and ensure the experience they have gained in this season’s competition hasn’t been in vain.

Celtic’s hopes of securing European football into the New Year were extinguished on Tuesday night as they were held to a 1-1 draw against Shakhtar Donetsk in Glasgow, with Postecoglou’s team having picked up just two points from their five group stage matches so far.
