“Neil Lennon Courageously Backs Brendan Rodgers’ Celtic for Triumph Against Lazio in Do-or-Die Champions League Clash”

Celtic faces a dire scenario, sitting at the bottom of Group E with just one point, staring at an early Champions League exit and no European action post-Christmas.

The stakes are clear—only a victory will suffice. Neil Lennon is defying the odds, expressing faith in a rare Italian upset, echoing lightning striking twice, as he revealed to PLZ Soccer.

Despite Celtic’s historical European road woes, Lennon trusts fate to favor them against Lazio, highlighting the issues the Italian side faces, including their shocking weekend defeat to the league’s last-placed team.

While acknowledging Celtic’s recent slip against Motherwell, Lennon emphasized the need for many facets to align, notably maintaining a full team on the pitch—a challenge this season.

“I’d love to see it happen, and I truly believe it can,” Lennon affirmed. “Honestly, I wasn’t impressed with Lazio at all. They suffered another loss this weekend to the bottom-placed club (Salernitana). There are definite issues there. If Celtic can net that first goal, they stand a chance. But winning is imperative.”

Taking a bold stance, Lennon stuck out his neck, asserting Celtic’s triumph—an optimistic internal outlook born from experience.

Despite a bleak Champions League campaign unless an unexpected turnaround secures Europa League football for the next season, disappointment looms.

From the initial stumble against Feyenoord marked by controversies involving Thierry Henry, Micah Richards, two red cards, and a Joe Hart mistake, the journey’s start wasn’t ideal.

While Celtic’s home performances against Lazio and Atletico deserved more than a single point, it’s time to move beyond those outcomes.

Some might argue for more support for Rodgers in the transfer market, acknowledging the potential for a more ambitious approach.
