Brendan Rodgers addressed the media after Celtic’s impressive 3-0 victory over Motherwell, where the team showcased a strong performance despite missing captain Callum McGregor due to a late injury. Goals from Luke McCowan, Alistair Johnston, and Adam Idah secured the win, highlighting the depth and quality in the squad.
Rodgers praised the midfield trio’s performance, particularly emphasizing the contributions of Paulo Bernardo and McCowan, who stepped up in McGregor’s absence. Although the injury to McGregor was unexpected, Rodgers expressed optimism about the situation, suggesting that the prognosis may be favorable: “We think it’s good news,” he mentioned, indicating that McGregor might not be sidelined for an extended period.
The match also saw an unfortunate incident involving Adam Idah, who suffered a dangerous challenge from Motherwell’s Liam Gordon, resulting in a red card for the defender. Idah is currently in a protective boot, and while his condition is being closely monitored, Rodgers is hopeful about his recovery.
With crucial fixtures on the horizon, the Celtic manager will be eagerly awaiting updates on both McGregor and Idah, focusing on recovery as the team looks to maintain its momentum in the league and prepare for upcoming challenges.
