Sead Haksabanovic brands Celtic fans 'f*****g brilliant' and insists Ange was right to let rip in Sydney

Sead Haksabanovic insists Ange Postecoglou was right to let rip as Celtic failed to put on a show for their Aussie fans.

The Hoops went down 2-1 to hosts Sydney FC in the opening match of their trip Down Under. Kyogo Furuhashi gave the Premiership pacesetters a first-half lead but it was cancelled out within a couple of minutes and Max Burgess bagged a winner against the run of play after the break.

Postecoglou refused to let the Hoops off the hook after an under-par performance in front of a bumper support in Sydney – and Haksabanovic agreed with his gaffer. He said: “Of course we were disappointed. We want to win every game, whether it’s a friendly, in the league or the Champions League. We’ve come a long way but unfortunately we didn’t show our best side. It’s a long journey and the times are different but we don’t like to make excuses. It’s not hard to sleep right. We should have shown more, so we were not happy.
