Martin O’Neill praised his Celtic players after they eased past FC Utrecht 4-2 to reach the knockout stages of the Europa League. Celtic will discover on Friday lunchtime whether they will face Ferencvaros or Stuttgart in the play-off round, with either Braga or Porto potentially awaiting the Scottish champions in the round of 16. The Celtic interim manager said: “Obviously I’m delighted with the result for a start. But great credit to the players, genuinely great credit to them. And from the start he’s made, he’s doing really, really well.
