Gio:Terrors real tough

RANGERS manager Giovanni van Bronckhorst is giving due respect to DUNDEE UNITED ahead of today’s clash at Tannadice.

The Scottish champions travel to Tayside on the back of a stunning 4-2 Europa League first-leg win over German giants Borussia Dortmund.

But Van Bronckhorst (above) remembers the Gers lost 1-0 at the Terrors last August and worked hard for a 1-0 win over them at Ibrox in December.

The Dutchman said: “It’s a team at a ground that can be very difficult. The first game we played there this season we lost and they gave us a tough challenge the last time we met them at Ibrox. We know it’s going to be difficult.”

CELTIC manager Ange Postecoglou challenged his players to show their resilience again following his side’s first defeat since November when they went down 3-1 at home to Bodo/ Glimt in the first leg of the Europa Conference League.

Postecoglou said: “It was never going to be smooth for us this year, so it’s just another challenge for us.

“Football always has a way of making sure it keeps you’re really focused.”

DUNDEE arrive at Celtic Park with new boss Mark McGhee after James McPake was sacked.
