Adam Idah Fires Back at Critics and Highlights Rodgers’ Support

Adam Idah, the young striker currently on loan at Celtic from Norwich City, has responded to his critics following his recent goal-scoring performance. In a match that saw him net a crucial goal, Idah celebrated by gesturing to the crowd, a move he later explained was a direct response to online criticism. "I saw a lot of stuff online, so it was just telling people to shut up," Idah stated in an interview with Independent.ie.

Idah's performance and subsequent comments have drawn attention not only for his on-field actions but also for his relationship with Celtic manager Brendan Rodgers. The striker praised Rodgers for his support and guidance, emphasizing the positive impact the manager has had on his development. "Brendan has been brilliant with me, always pushing me to do better," Idah added, as reported by Celtic Quick News.

This incident also comes amidst a backdrop of other football news, including the Football Association of Ireland reporting a racist incident at an Under-17 match to UEFA, highlighting the ongoing issues of racism in the sport.
