Celtic boss Neil Lennon was encouraged with his side's fightback against Lyon as they prepare to try and keep their UEFA Champions League hopes alive.

Having trailed their French opponents 2-0 into the last 10 minutes, the Scottish giants managed to grab a 2-2 draw through Gary Hooper and Georgios Samaras in the opening match of the Emirates Cup on Saturday afternoon.

"I said the other night that I don't think the tie is dead," Lennon told Sky Sports 3.

"But we need to be at our very best and you saw a glimpse of that today."
