Celtic and Nigeria defender, Efe Ambrose has promised to not repeat the mistakes that cost Celtic a win in their 2-2 draw with Fenerbahce in the Europa League as they head for Motherwell in this weekend's Scottish Premier League fixture.
Efe Ambrose was guilty of 2 costly mistakes which Fenerbahce's Brazilian attacker, Fernandao, took advantage of to cancel out Celtic's 2-0 lead. Leigh Griffiths and Kris Commons had put Celtic in a commanding position.
Ambrose's back header to Craig Gordon was poor and Fernandao latched at the opportunity to pull one back. He also failed to mark Fernandao as he nodded home Fenerbahce's equaliser.
"It was a gift for them but the most important thing is the management, the gaffer, the players stood by me. They know it can happen", said Ambrose.
"Sometimes in football, when the defender or goalkeeper makes the mistake, everybody sees it"
"If Craig was able to catch the ball then no one would speak about this, it is not a mistake but the communication between me and Craig was not there." He added.
