Celtic hero Neil Lennon has been sacked as Omonia Nicosia manager - just hours after addressing the media in a post-match press conference.
The former Hoops manager spoke to the Cypriot press for the final time following defeat to Nea Salamis. The result left the club sitting seventh in the domestic league standings and well off the pace in the race for the league title. Omonia posted the full video of Lennon's media address on social media just 30 minutes before announcing his departure.
He landed domestic silverware within months of arriving in Cyprus and with that a spot in the Europa League. After successfully negotiating a two-legged win over Gent in the play-off round they landed a group stage section alongside Manchester United, Real Sociedad and FC Sherriff. Lennon was twice so close to historic results against the La Liga and English giants with Erik ten Hag's men grabbing an added time winner at Old Trafford thanks to Scotland international Scott McTominay.
