Maurizio Sarri has blasted his critics in a defiant stance ahead of Champions League action - as he spots where it's gone wrong for Celtic.

The Italian side broke Celtic hearts on Matchday 2 as they inflicted a last-gasp 2-1 defeat upon the Hoops with a stoppage-time Pedro header.

They suffered defeat the last time the Premiership champions visited Rome - in 2019 in the Europa League under Neil Lennon's management - and will be keen to avoid doing so again.

They are second in the group and could be top with a win on Tuesday but go into the match off the back of patchy domestic form.
