Cameron Carter-Vickers led by example from the back for Celtic at Ibrox this afternoon. The centre-half captained the Hoops in this season’s third Glasgow derby.
At the back, Carter-Vickers was a rock. The 26-year-old stood out in the backline despite his side conceding three goals.
Post-match, the former Spurs man remained unmoved by the result. He admitted that although it was frustrating for Celtic to draw the game from the winning position they were in, nothing will alter in terms of their approach for the rest of the season.
Speaking to Sky Sports after the game, Carter-Vickers was as calm as can be. He said: “The situation in the table hasn’t changed.
“Even if we won that game today we would probably still have to have won our next seven or six games. Nothing has changed at all.”
As club captain Callum McGregor put it, every game between now and the end of the season is a cup final for Celtic.
Brendan Rodgers’ men need to be impeccable during the upcoming run-in. That starts next Saturday at home to St. Mirren and must continue after the split.
Things are as tight as ever and remain as they were following today’s clash.
