Celtic looked like they were on their way to a victory against Hibernian at Easter Road on Sunday after goals from Scott Sinclair had given them a 2-0 lead.
But a late fightback from Hibs saw the two sides share the spoils.
And Brendan Rodgers believes Celtic deserved more from the performance.

âIt should have been [out of sight],â Rodgers told Celticâs official media. âI thought we were very good today on the back of a tough game in midweek. We were 2-0 up going into the last 15-16 minutes of the game and we should have been probably four or five up.
âFrom our defensive pressure in the game, they didnât really have anything against us. There was one in the first half where (Martin) Boyle got down the right and got a shot but, apart from that, we had great comfort in the game as a team and, 2-0 up with 15 minutes to go, it looks as though we could go on and get more goals. Â But we stopped passing the ball and we defended a corner not so well.
âThat was the craziest thing about it as you could actually lose the game, and to lose the game would have been a crime,â Rodgers conceded. âThe level of our play today was exceptional â our movement, our positioning, our creativity, and defensively we were very strong â but that last 15 minutes, not so good.â
