Loovens: Euro tie not over

GLENN LOOVENS admits Celtic will be relying on football’s habit of throwing up “strange” outcomes when they attempt to overturn a 3-0 deficit in the second instalment of their Champions League tie with Braga.

Like manager Neil Lennon, Loovens insists the Hoops’ third qualifying round clash is not over, despite Wednesday’s crushing defeat at the AXA Stadium.

But the Dutch defender acknowledges it will take an epic turnaround to prevent his side crashing out of Europe’s premier club competition and into the Europa League play-offs.
