Rangers star Borna Barisic 'knew he f***** up so just embraced it' in Celtic defeat
Celtic thumped rivals Rangers 3-0 on Wednesday night in the Scottish Premiership, and a calamitous piece of defending by Borna Barisic has caught the eye of many.In the 44th minute, the ball was whipped into the box and Israeli winger Liel Abada was left completely unmarked and turned the ball home.Left-back Barisic allowed Abada to stroll into the box and convert without any pressure, and replays show that as soon as he was the Celtic forward striding onto the cross he knelt down in sheer disappointment himself.One Celtic fan wrote on Twitter: “Enjoyed this. Knew he’d f***ed up so just embraced it and had a little rest.”Another said: “The lad took his goal well but where on earth was the bloody full-back or are they not a thing these days?”One user added: “S***e defending that, still had time to get across his man but decided to sit down instead.”It was somewhat fortunate for Barisic that the chance was converted as the Croatian would not have been ready to clear the ball away if Allan McGregor had saved the shot, as pointed out by another fan: “Don’t think I’ve ever seen a player squat down before a goal is scored.
