Joe Hart and the Celtic coach who delivered touch of class amid Livingston woe

Livingston goalkeeper Max Stryjek has hailed Celtic goalkeeper Joe Hart for his post-match attitude following the Premiership defeat.

On Sunday it was more misery on the road for Ange Postecoglou 's men as they slipped to defeat in West Lothian.

Despite the struggles, Stryjek revealed former Manchester City stopper Hart was happy to give credit to the underdogs in the tunnel after the game.

The stand-in captain and goalkeeping coach Stevie Woods congratulated his efforts on a rueful day for the visitors.

Polish youth cap Stryjek has revealed to the media in his homeland the plaudits received from the Celtic number one following the 90 minutes.

He told Meczyki : "We gave a high five, we talked for a while, we exchanged t-shirts.

"He kept class. He admitted that we deserved the victory.

"Almost all Celtic players went straight to the dressing room, including Josip Juranović, but he went to thank his fans and was able to congratulate us.

"Their goalkeeping coach was fine too, he praised me for my good performance and wished me good luck."
