Callum McGregor admits Celtic must be 'perfect' as captain's claim sets up Bodo Glimt thrill ride

Callum McGregor reckons it will need perfection for Celtic to melt Bodo/Glimt.

The Parkhead skipper admits there is simply no margin for error as his team-mates aim to keep alive their European dreams.

Ange Postecoglou ’s team are 3-1 down from the first leg seven days ago heading into tonight’s return in the Arctic Circle.

Celtic are in danger of being frozen out of the Europa Conference League at the first knockout stage, with the Norwegians favourites to complete the job in Aspmyra Stadium having secured their impressive win in Glasgow’s east end.

McGregor knows the visitors have to be without flaws in the snow.

Asked if it will take a perfect performance for his team to reach the last 16, the captain said: “Yes, I think so. We can’t afford to make any mistakes.

“To get through we pretty much need to be perfect in the sense that we don’t concede and we can get three goals to take us through.

“That’s the challenge and all we can do is prepare as well as we can, give absolutely everything and do everything the manager wants us to do. If we do those things correctly we have a chance to get through.
