CELTIC goalkeeper Joe Hart has held his hands up to the blunder that gifted RB Leipzig a goal at a crucial juncture in their 3-1 defeat in the Red Bull Arena, but says that is the price of playing football the way that manager Ange Postecoglou wants to.
Hart passed the ball to Leipzig midfielder Dominic Szoboszlai who immediately fed Andre Silva to put the German side 2-1 ahead during a topsy-turvy encounter that has ultimately left Celtic with a formidable task on their hands to reach the knockout stages of the Champions League.
But while admitting that his error proved costly, Hart defended the principles that led him to try such a risky pass at a critical stage of the game.
