Celtic manager Brendan Rodgers hailed his side’s “terrific performance” after a 2-2 Champions League draw with Atletico Madrid games
Celtic twice took the lead in the first half through Kyogo Furuhashi and Luis Palma, who netted shortly after Antoine Griezmann had netted the rebound from his own penalty games
Celtic played with pace, purpose and confidence in the first half and both goals came after excellent moves, but they could not keep up the tempo after the break and Alvaro Morata levelled eight minutes into the second half games
Rodgers said: “I thought it was a terrific performance, especially the first 45 minutes – the quality of our games football, the speed in our pressing and in our game, everything we would want games
“We were unfortunate with the penalty games
One, it was very harsh, and, two, they got the good fortune after the save hits the post and comes straight to the player games
“But our reaction was superb, everything I wanted in terms of playing together, pressing and the intensity and a really aggressive mentality and then having the courage to play games
“We expected them second half to have a spell in the game but they didn’t create so much games
Their equaliser was fantastic, the early cross and great finish games
“But we kept fighting and showed we can compete with a top-level team games
“It will give us confidence to know we can create opportunities and play the games football we want to play games
The team pressed the game well and passed it for a lot of the game games
”Rodgers, who revealed Reo Hatate had suffered a hamstring injury, which forced him off for Paulo Bernardo inside seven minutes, admitted it was difficult to maintain the intensity for 90 minutes games
Celtic never looked like taking the lead for a third time, despite Atletico going down to 10 men in the 82nd minute games
He added: “There’s a wee bit of tiredness that comes in the last 20 minutes because we are not used to playing at that tempo and against that level of opponent, so naturally a wee bit of fatigue kicks in games
We also had to make an early sub with Reo’s injury games
“It was a really big performance but we couldn’t quite get the result we were looking for games
”Celtic are bottom of the group with one point from three games ahead of trips to Madrid and Lazio, the latter of whom have four points games
We have shown we can perform and we go into the other three trying to get as many points as we can and see where it takes usBrendan RodgersRodgers said: “We wanted to get three points but if you can’t get the win then don’t lose it, and I don’t think we looked like losing games
I can see development for sure games
“We have shown we can perform and we go into the other three trying to get as many points as we can and see where it takes us games
”Atletico manager Diego Simeone admitted his side had struggled to deal with Celtic in the first half games
“As expected, they started really well, as they did in their first two games,” he said games
“We really struggled to contain them early on and they scored with their first attack games
We managed to respond but they quickly scored a fantastic goal games
“The first half didn’t go as we would have liked but I was really pleased with the second half, it was a real Champions League performance games
We showed a lot of personality and responsibility games
”Simeone, who brought on Marcos Llorente and Rodrigo Riquelme at half-time, added: “In the first half we didn’t have the speed the game required, we weren’t up to scratch and they combined well in our half games
“But the subs had a big impact and we had games better solutions in our passing game games

Max Verstappen defied Lewis Hamilton to win a cat-and-mouse United States Grand Prix at a sizzling Circuit of the Americas in Austin games
Verstappen has been on easy street this season, but the triple world champion was made to fight for the 50th win of his career – becoming only the fifth driver to reach a half-century games
Indeed, at one stage, Hamilton dared to dream of ending a losing streak which stands at 686 days and counting games
Yet, as so often been the case this year, Verstappen’s speed in his all-conquering Red Bull machine came to the fore games
Verstappen joins Hamilton (103 wins), Michael Schumacher (91), Sebastian Vettel (53) and Alain Prost (51) in the half-century club games
“To win my 50th career win makes me very proud and we will try to push for me,” said Verstappen games
He moved ahead of Lando Norris on lap 28 of 56 to all but seal the win games
Hamilton might bemoan a questionable strategy decision which saw him lose 10 seconds to Verstappen in the opening round of pit stops games
But in reality, he probably did not have the pace to stop the Dutchman from claiming his 15th win from the 18 rounds so far games
He crossed the line an agonising 2 games
2 sec behind Verstappen with Norris hanging on to the final spot on the podium games
Hamilton could count himself unfortunate to drop from third to fourth at the start games
The seven-time world champion enjoyed a decent getaway, but he was blocked by Norris under braking allowing Sainz to sneak through games
Norris had seen off pole-sitter Leclerc with a lunge at the first bend to assume top spot games
As Norris set about building a lead – already two seconds clear of Leclerc at the end of the second lap – Hamilton set about passing both scarlet cars games
First up was Sainz games
Hamilton used the tow to latch on to the back of Ferrari on the 210mph drag to Turn 12, and, assisted by DRS, drew alongside Sainz before sliding underneath the Spaniard games
On the following lap, Verstappen, who started in sixth after his pole lap in qualifying was chalked off for exceeding track limits, relegated Sainz another place when he made his move at the same corner games
Hamilton has won six times across the Pond – with five of those victories here in Austin – and the 38-year-old required only two laps to swat Leclerc aside for second games
Deeper on the brakes at Turn 12, Hamilton sailed round the outside of the Monegasque at the left-hander, with Norris now three seconds up the road games
Behind, and Verstappen was not finding it as easy to make progress games
He was stuck behind Leclerc for an additional five laps before finally making his move on the Monegasque games
He trailed Norris by seven seconds, and Hamilton by four games
In the Mercedes garage, Prince Harry cut a pensive figure as he gnawed at his fingernails games
The Duke of Sussex has been something of lucky charm for Hamilton games
He was a guest of Mercedes when Hamilton secured his second title in the 2014 season decider in Abu Dhabi, leading the congratulations to his fellow Briton on the radio games
Verstappen was the first in for new rubber at the end of lap 16 with Norris stopping the next time round games
But Hamilton stayed out games
Were Mercedes attempting a one-stopper? Hamilton did not seem convinced games
Asked if he could complete another five laps on his current set of tyres, Hamilton replied: “I am not sure, man games
It is pretty tough games
”Hamilton then locked up before his race engineer Peter Bonnington was back on the intercom to inform Hamilton that Verstappen – who on new tyres had just lapped three seconds faster than the Briton – was now likely to gazump him when he eventually stopped games
“No s***, man,” yelled Hamilton games
“I am struggling out here games
”You have given me a hell of a gap to closeLewis Hamilton on the team radioOn lap 20, in came Hamilton, and a slow front-right tyre change added to his woes by costing him a needless second games
When Hamilton emerged from the pits, he had dropped to third, five seconds adrift of Verstappen games
“I came out so far behind,” he said with a hint of dejection games
When the opening stops were completed, Norris led Verstappen by 2 games
4 sec with Hamilton 7 games
5 off the lead games
By virtue of taking on another set of mediums, Verstappen had to stop again, but Norris and Hamilton – now both on the hards – could, if their rubber allowed, go all the way to the end games
Hamilton, failing to make any inroads and sensing his best chance of ending a 22-month winning streak had faded, expressed his frustrations games
“You have given me a hell of a gap to close,” he said games
On lap 28, Verstappen dived underneath Norris for the lead at Turn 12 games
Norris had a nibble back at the Red Bull heading into the ensuing right hander, but he failed to make it stick games
The question now was whether Norris, and indeed Hamilton – now less than five seconds off the lead – could make their tyres last games
The answer arrived on lap 34 when Norris dived in for a fresh set of boots games
Verstappen followed in on lap 35, and despite, a slow left-rear tyre change, retained his position ahead of Norris games
Three laps later and Hamilton was in, changing to the faster medium compound games
Hamilton had the bit games between his teeth and within 10 laps he was crawling all over the back of Norris’ McLaren games
Norris slung his McLaren to the inside on the entry to the first corner in a move to stop Hamilton, but the older Brit gained games better traction out of the corner to slingshot by in his Mercedes games
Verstappen was five seconds ahead and Hamilton started to reel his old nemesis in only to run out of laps games
Sainz took fourth ahead of Sergio Perez with Leclerc sixth and George Russell seventh for Mercedes games
