Janis Blaswich 'unhappy' with Celtic Champions League preparation as RB Leipzig's away day woes continue

RB Leipzig goalkeeper Janis Blaswich insists he was 'not happy' with how his side played in the 1-1 draw with Mainz - as the Bundesliga side's wait for an away this season continues to drag on.

Marco Rose 's side were staring down the barrel of a fourth Bundesliga defeat in just nine games following Marcus Ingvartsen's strike for Mainz just before half-time but in-demand striker Christopher Nkunku rescued a point for Leipzig with his tenth goal of the campaign in the 80th minute.

And despite usually serving as backup to first-choice goalkeeper and club captain Peter Gulacsi, Blaswich was keen to voice his opinions in the wake of the club's latest underwhelming result. Ahead of Tuesday night's rematch with Celtic in the Champions League, Blaswich said: "We knew that it would be a hard-fought match. We're not happy as we expected more of ourselves. Mainz press really well and we had to wait for the moments where we could try and play through them.
