Celtic ace Cameron Carter-Vickers admits facing Lazio in Rome’s Stadio Olimpico will bring some light relief from being asked to break down a Motherwell side intent on stretching football’s rules of engagement to the limit.The defender believes it could also be a role reversal against the Italians in a Champions League clash where his Hoops side are determined to show they are capable of delivering at this level.
After Saturday’s war of attrition against the Fir Park side, Brendan Rodgers and his players will look to get their first Group E win on the board tomorrow and Carter-Vickers insists it’ll be a far cry from Well’s parking-the-bus approach.With two games remaining, Celtic are five points adrift of Feyenoord in third place and rooted to the foot of the table but the USA international is intent on narrowing the small margins which he believes is separating them from European football’s elite.Carter-Vickers also admits it’ll be far easier to create chances against Lazio than against a Motherwell side which claimed a 1-1 draw despite having 10 men behind the ball for most of the contest.
He said: “It’s a totally different game. When a team comes up presses you it’s completely different, there is more space for our forwards and our midfield players to try to get in behind.
