The Huddle Breakdown

In this week’s Huddle Breakdown Extra Time, Alan and James pick apart Celtic’s 3–1 defeat to FC Midtjylland in Denmark, a performance marked by sloppy turnovers, poor structure, and a complete loss of control out of possession. The lads break down the key moments that swung the match, what Midtjylland exploited tactically, where Celtic’s press broke down, and which players struggled to cope with the Danish side’s physicality and speed. They also discuss O’Neill and Maloney’s team selection, late substitutions, and whether Celtic’s flaws are systemic or simply down to individual errors on the night.

In this week’s Huddle Breakdown, Alan, James, and Laura react to Celtic’s 2–1 win over Rangers in the League Cup semi-final — the gang talk Martin O’Neill’s emotional touchline presence, and the raw intensity of a Celtic side playing with freedom again. The panel break down the tactical shift under O’Neill and Maloney, and the significance of a win that arrives in the middle of a club-wide reset following Brendan Rodgers’ exit. They also discuss the atmosphere at Hampden, the feel-good factor returning to the squad, and where Celtic go from here as the league campaign resumes.Want to support the channel? - https://huddlebreakdown.comLike this video and want more content like it?
