TWO-GOAL hero Moussa Dembele praised his side's performance as social media exploded in reaction to Celtic's thrilling 3-3 draw with Manchester City last night.
The French striker scored twice in the fast-paced Champions League meeting, which the Hoops led three times before being pegged back on each occasion.
Fernandinho, Raheem Sterling and Nolito were on the scoresheet for the visitors after the England winger had scored an own goal between Dembele's two strikes.
The result gives Brendan Rodgers' side their first point in Group C and marked a superb reaction to the 7-0 defeat to Barcelona a fortnight ago.
Great atmosphere. Great performance. It's a game I won't forget! Thanks to all the fans giving it 100% as always! @celticfc #celticvcity
