Captain Graeme Shinnie has since spoken out, urging his teammates to learn from this humbling experience and to regroup for the challenges ahead.
Shinnie emphasized the importance of recognizing the harsh realities of the game. “If we’re not at the top of our game, then those things happen,” he stated, highlighting that the defeat serves as a crucial learning curve for the squad. The Dons entered the match with high hopes but were quickly overwhelmed by Celtic’s fluid play and tactical rotations.
