Wary Marco Rose is adamant RB Leipzig are in set for a bumpy ride when they face Celtic again next Tuesday night. The Germans are basking in the glow of their convincing 3-1 victory over Ange Postecoglou's side to reignite their hopes of reaching the last 16 of the Champions League.

The mercurial Christopher Nkunku netted before deadly Andre Silva added a brace to take the game away from the Premiership champions.

But Rose - who donned a Celtic scarf and bunnet after guiding Salzburg to a win in Glasgow back in 2018- is acutely aware of the full throttle atmosphere which is awaiting his players next week.

Speaking after the game, he said: "At times today it was a wild, uncontrolled match, and for a long time it was a very intense match as well.
