Deila confident of future at Celtic despite loss

Ronny Deila remains confident of his Celtic future and the club’s Europa League prospects despite the 2-1 home defeat by Molde keeping them bottom of Group A.

The Norwegian outfit clinched qualification through goals by Mohamed Elyounoussi and skipper Daniel Hestad, either side of a Kris Commons leveller, with midfielder Nir Bitton red carded in the second half for a ’last man’ foul on Molde substitute Ola Kamara.

Deila’s side have two points from four games and need to beat Ajax at home and Fenerbahce away to qualify, and will have Bitton and Stefan Johansen suspended for the visit of the Dutch side on November 26.
