Rodgers Sticks to Philosophy Despite 7-1 Loss

Celtic manager Brendan Rodgers remains committed to his team's attacking philosophy despite a crushing 7-1 Champions League loss to Borussia Dortmund. Rodgers acknowledges the defeat was a setback but views it as an opportunity for growth, emphasizing the importance of learning from mistakes rather than adopting a defensive approach. Despite Celtic's previous winning streak, they were overwhelmed by Dortmund's attacking prowess, notably Karim Adeyemi's first-half hat-trick. This loss marks another heavy defeat for Rodgers in the Champions League, following similar results against Barcelona and Paris Saint-Germain. Rodgers is optimistic about his team's ability to bounce back, stressing the need to improve passing and positioning to compete at the highest level. The defeat highlighted the challenge of competing against Europe's elite, but Rodgers is determined to maintain his team's style and believes they will be judged more fairly at the end of the campaign.
