Callum McGregor insists Celtic 'miles' from success but skipper can forgive rare Hibs stinker

dailyrecord.co.uk:

Callum McGregor reckons his side can be excused a bad day at the office.But the Celtic skipper insists they need to get straight back down to work as they look to complete their Treble assignment.

Neither Brendan Rodgers nor his captain could be too harsh on the players who laboured in Leith having seen the same men push Bayern Munich to the brink on Tuesday night.

That Champions League heartbreaker was cruel on a team who gave their all through 94 gruelling minutes before Alphonso Davies saved the day for the Bundesliga giants.

But the taxing efforts were plain to see during a tired first half in the capital as Hibs did the damage with Josh Campbell’s double. “Obviously, it’s a poor result,” admitted CalMac. “We didn't play as well as we could in the first half and then by that point you're chasing the game.“We did a lot right in the second half but just gave ourselves too much to do.
