Celtic manager Brendan Rodgers has described his side as "full of character" following their 5-2 defeat of Hapoel Be'er Sheva.
The Scottish champions took a commanding lead in the first leg of their Champions League play-off match against Israeli opposition.
A superb first-half performance had left Celtic 3-0 up at the break but they were made to work to establish a clear advantage after Hapoel pulled the score back to 3-2.
"At 3-2, to then go and win the game 5-2, really shows that mental strength of the players as well as the quality," Rodgers told reporters.
"It is a brilliant result for us. You would obviously prefer 3-0 but 5-2 really shows the level that the team played at in a European game where there is everything riding on it.
"They are nowhere near the finished article yet but they look a really exciting team which is full of character.
"I said before about the supporters being patient and allowing the players to play, especially in difficult moments in games, and I have to say a massive thank you because I think they took a stride forward tonight in terms of understanding how we want to work."
