Celtic won’t hold back, says Scott Brown

Scott Brown says Celtic will adopt a more positive approach when they take on Barcelona tonight.

Neil Lennon’s side were criticised for their backs-to-the-wall performance in last month’s 2-1 defeat at the Nou Camp.

Ahead of the return fixture at Parkhead, Celtic captain Brown said: “We will hopefully attack a little bit more. It was hard at the Nou Camp, where they had a lot of possession.

“It’s difficult when you play against teams who press you so high up the pitch. They do that to most teams in Spain and win three, four and five-nil week in, week out, so it shows we got our tactics spot on.

“We defended really well as a group and we are going to have to do that again. But we are going to have to get more of the ball and try to keep it for longer periods.”
