A week after Celtic defeated Rangers in the League Cup final, they delivered a lackluster and uninspired performance, settling for a goalless draw against Dundee United on Sunday.
Brendan Rodgers’ team created numerous opportunities in the attacking third but lacked sharpness and failed to challenge goalkeeper Jack Walton sufficiently.
Out of Celtic’s 17 attempts on goal, only three were on target, while Dundee United managed two shots, both of which hit the target.
Celtic made several changes following the Hampden thriller, with key players like Cameron Carter-Vickers, Alistair Johnston, and Nicolas Kuhn absent due to illness.
This provided an opportunity for fringe players to step up, but they largely failed to seize the moment.
