Manager Neil Lennon refused to be too downcast despite seeing Celtic slip out of the Champions League at the first hurdle.
The Bhoys faced a mountain against Sporting Braga after losing the first leg of their Champions League third qualifying round 3-0 in Portugal and they were unable to turn things around, winning 2-1 on the night but losing 4-2 on aggregate.
Lennon commented after his side's exit: "Overall I'm delighted with the performance and intensity and all the things you ask for - commitment and passion.
"The pace we played at and the passing was very pleasing.
"At half-time we just asked them to win the game and I thought we deserved to win.
"But we keep conceding soft goals. I'm learning from it and hopefully the players are learning."
