Adam Idah spoke to the media ahead of his manager Brendan Rodgers making his appearance in the media room at Lennoxtown this afternoon…
This was the pre-match media conference ahead of tomorrow’s Scottish Premiership match against Dundee United as Celtic look for a victory that would extend the lead at the top of the table to 16 points. Not too much was said about tomorrow’s game with it inevitably being overshadowed by the UEFA Champions League match at the Allianz Arena as Celtic go searching for a two goal victory that would take us through to the last 16. Improbable but in football nothing is impossible.
So little or nothing about the Dundee United game but Adam can only answer the questions that he’s asked…
Q: Adam, how’s the last few days been after that massive tie on Wednesday night?
Adam Idah: “Yeah, it’s been good. It was a tough game, but I thought we’d done well overall. We knew it was going to be tough. They’re obviously a top team, one of the best in the world, but I thought we put up a good fight and look, we’re still in this tie and it’s a big one on Tuesday.”
Q: We spoke to a few boys after the game and said specifically that the last 15-20 minutes gave you a lot of confidence going forwards that you can go toe-to-toe with Bayern. Has that been the message relayed to you by the manager over the last few days?
Adam Idah: “Yeah, 100%. I think it’s just having that confidence and belief going into these big games. We can go toe-to-toe with the big teams, it’s just going out and actually doing it and proving it. Like you said, the last 15-20 minutes was really good. It was good for us and all the fans backed us. Everyone’s looking forward to Tuesday. We’re still in it and we’re looking forward to it.”
