McCowan is adamant it was just a bad night at the office for the Hoops
The sight of the Celtic fans packed into the Westfalenstadion hours before kick-off hit home the club’s level for Luke McCowan.
“We were not at it. But they’re not a level above Celtic. Celtic are the same as them. We are as big a club as them. We just weren’t at it that night. To watch how the two teams were that night probably showed us the level we need to be at. McCowan said: “When you’re 5-0 up you go on and try whatever you can to make goals and assist and do whatever. It’s about knowing you did that from the start against Dortmund and not just when you’re playing against St Johnstone.
It’s been a lot to take in and he was awestruck on camera when he walked out at Parkhead for the first time as a Celtic signing on deadline day. Yet Germany really was another level again. McCowan said: “The only other one was probably away at Dortmund. When I walked out at the start of the game before we got changed or whatever to see the pitch and the fans were already in.
McCowan has already seen enough to suggest the side won’t be blown off course in Europe by the hammering. There’s been no shouting and bawling, no dressing- room bust ups or slanging matches. McCowan added: “No, the confidence in this group is immense.
