Valencia beat Celtic 2-0 in the Europa League.
Valencia manager Marcelino has praised Celtic after his side won in Glasgow.
The Spanish side made light work of Celtic, despite the strong form of Brendan Rodgers’ side.
Celtic lost 2-0, conceding their first goals of 2019.
Marcelino has praised the Celtic atmosphere, when quizzed about it after the game by Spanish newspaper Super Deporte.
When asked about the stadium and Celtic support, Marcelino responded: “Extraordinary. Fortunately we managed to dose it with the great game that we deployed, but incredible.”
He went on to praise his team for the way they responded to it, saying he was very satisfied with his players.
It would have been difficult for Valencia if Celtic had managed to score the first goal and really lift the fans further.
Instead the visitors’ opener left a sense of deflation, and realisation that once again, Celtic were on their way to another European humbling.
Celtic still have the away leg to come, but realistically, their European adventure looks like it is nearly over for another year.
