Shakhtar Donetsk defender Valeriy Bondar reckons Celtic are a better side than RB Leipzig.
Champions League Group F looks set to develop into a three-way battle for second place between Shakhtar, Celtic and Leipzig with four matches left to play. Ange Postecoglou 's side have returned to Glasgow following a 1-1 draw with the Ukrainians on a night the Scottish Premiership champions will feel they should've taken all three.
That followed Shakhtar stunning Leipzig 4-1 on match day one to spring an early surprise in the race to qualify. Celtic controlled long stretches of Wednesday night's clash and passed up several opportunities to grab a winner after Mykhalo Mudryk cancelled out Reo Hatate's early opener. And 23-year-old Bondar revealed manager Igor Jovicevic told his players Celtic were a tougher proposition than the Bundesliga cracks - a prediction the centre-back reckons proved spot on.
