Lustig says Celtic are used to defeats in Europe
Celtic defender Mikael Lustig has said that his team are accustomed to having to bounce back in domestic football afte rEuropean defeats.
Brendan Rodger's men fell to another European defeat on Thursday, this time 3-1 away against Red Bull Salzburg, in the Europa League.
This is their tenth defeat in Europe since the Northern-Irishman took charge, however their failings on the continent haven't previosuly impeded their domestic progress, something which Lustig was keen to point out.
Speaking after the game he said: "It has been like this for the last seven years,"
"We have struggled in Europe before and then come back and played a great game domestically. Hopefully we can again."
"Historically Celtic have struggled to get points away from home," he noted. "We felt last season when we had the 3-0 [Champions League] win at Anderlecht, we could learn from that one.
"But when you get a good start like we had, you need to be a bit better with the ball, because in the first half we defended really well.
"If we had a bit more quality when we had the ball, we might have created more chances and come away with a point. But it wasn't good enough. We just have to stay together and keep going."
