Celtic and their players continue to receive high praise following their Champions League victory over RB Leipzig this week, and it’s well deserved. After facing criticism for their loss to Borussia Dortmund, Celtic’s performance against Leipzig has earned them all the accolades they are receiving.
Under Brendan Rodgers’ leadership, Celtic managed a draw against Atalanta and then defeated the second-best team in Germany with their impressive display against Leipzig. Scott Brown and Neil Lennon were particularly impressed by one player in particular, Nicolas Kuhn, who they described as being “on fire” during the match at Parkhead.
Kuhn’s goals before halftime left both Brown and Lennon in awe, with Brown praising his exceptional finishing and Lennon commending Celtic’s recruitment for securing such a talented player. Kuhn’s performance has quickly made him a fan favorite, especially after a rocky start at Celtic.
With talk of Kuhn potentially earning a spot on the Germany squad, his standout performance against Leipzig has certainly helped his chances. Celtic’s victory over a strong Leipzig side has only reinforced Kuhn’s potential and solidified his place as a key player for the team.
