Celtic rounded off their pre-season preparations with a 2-2 draw against Ruben Amorim's AC Milan on Saturday afternoon.

"In terms of a pre-season game, I really enjoyed it," O'Neill said post-match.

"I thought we did some really good things in the game. Just a little spell after half-time where we lost a bit of concentration.

"But overall, it was a great workout for us."
