“One that got away” – Neil Lennon’s Instant Reaction To Enthralling Glasgow Derby

Former Celtic manager Neil Lennon has reacted to his old team’s enthralling 3-3 draw with Rangers at Ibrox this afternoon.

The Hoops went in two goals up at the break thanks to Daizen Maeda and Matt O’Riley, but the Gers eventually got themselves level.

Adam Idah then went up the park and scored a tremendous goal but Rabbi Matondo’s equaliser caused the game to end in a 3-3 draw.

Lennon admitted after the game that it was a great spectacle and that despite losing a two-goal advantage, the result won’t feel like a loss for Celtic. He said: [live on air on Sky Sports] “It was a compelling game.

“It was a real treat for the neutral [but] I’m disappointed.

“From a Celtic point of view, it won’t feel like a defeat but one that got away from them.”

The Parkhead faithful will be understandably disappointed after today’s game, but the title is still in the hands of The Bhoys.

They remain in control of their destiny which can be seen as a huge positive going into the last six league games of the season.

Each match is like a cup final now for Celtic, starting with St. Mirren at home next weekend.
