Celtic manager Ronny Deila has insisted that he is happy with his side's performance despite only managing a 2-2 draw with Hearts this afternoon.
The Bhoys missed the chance to move three points clear at the top of the Scottish Premiership table following a second consecutive winless match, twice squandering a lead on their way to a share of the spoils.
Deila has come under criticism for Celtic's performances at times this term, but he believes that the spirit shown by the team this afternoon was a positive to take from the match.
"It was disappointing [to lose the lead twice] but what I am happy with is the good team spirit in the team. Against Motherwell that was disappointing, people were playing for themselves instead of playing for the team," Deila is quoted as saying by PA.
"Today I saw my old team back again. I saw a hard-working team which was organised and who played forward quickly and that is the way I want to see my team. That is a positive thing and something we have to try to produce again on Wednesday. We started the game very well and were unlucky with a couple of injuries but we took time to get organised. We got to 1-0 with a beautiful goal then we conceded with an unnecessary goal and that was tough.
"But we showed mental strength to go out and control it again and scored a beautiful goal. We were a bit stressed in the end but that is how it will always be when you are one goal ahead in an atmosphere like here. And sometimes you have to give credit to the opponent when you have strikes like that. Craig had no chance. Maybe it was a deflection but that was an unbelievable goal."
Celtic's next match sees them take on Dundee at Dens Park on Wednesday evening.
