Rodgers spoke well after the game, and despite questions from some, this season has shown he has the heart and determination to weather storms.
This afternoon was yet another example of his Celtic team battling against the odds after being 1-0 down in the game after just two minutes.
The Irishman’s commitment to Celtic long-term was also questioned, but after many twists and turns this year, he has shown that he is here to stay, despite what some would have you believe after his previous departure.
