'Weak as p***' - Unseen X-rated Brendan Rodgers response to sloppy Celtic defending

Celtic manager Brendan Rodgers couldn't hide his frustration after watching his side concede a late goal against Dundee.

The Parkhead boss vented his fury from the touchline after Aaron Donnelly put Dundee 3-2 up in the Scottish Premiership fixture at Dens Park.

Arne Engels would then score a late penalty to claim a point for Celtic.

Celtic boss Rodgers, though, was less than impressed by the defending on show as Dundee snatched the lead in the closing stages.

Auston Trusty was beaten in the air by Donnelly who nodded home from close range.

Sky Sports cameras then turned to Rodgers on the sidelines with replays showing the Celtic boss react in an X-rated manner.

The Celtic boss appeared to say "F***ing weak as p***".

Celtic had taken the lead through a Luke McCowan header in the first half before Oluwaseun Adewumi fired a leveller before the break after a rapid counter attack.

Yang restored Celtic's lead on 53 minutes but Dundee were back level one minute later as Cameron Carter-Vickers saw the ball deflect into his own net from a Josh Mulligan cross.

Donnelly then headed Dundee ahead with 12 minutes left before Engels scored the equaliser from the penalty stop three minutes into stoppage time.
