Rodgers calls for Celtic aggression
Brendan Rodgers wants his team to be aggressive as they face RB Leipzig in a crucial Europa League tie.
Celtic are usually a formidable force at home in European fixtures, and they'll have to be as they face a make-or-break match against RB Leipzig on Thursday night.
The Scottish champions have had an upturn in domestic form of late, and their manager Brendan Rodgers wants them to be aggressive in the match against the German outfit.
"When we're at our best we are very much a team that defends forward, presses the game," he said.
"Of course, you cannot press the game for the entire 90 minutes but it's in those moments when you can't press that you are very compact as a team together, close the spaces and make sure you are really aggressive on your press.
"At this level, you cannot afford to be timid. You have to be really aggressive. I have every confidence that with the players we have we can go on and put on a good demonstration of our qualities. And like I say, our aim is to win the game."
