(Reuters) - Celtic manager Brendan Rodgers will not press the panic button after his side's embarrassing defeat to part-timers Lincoln Red Imps from Gibraltar in the first-leg of their Champions League qualifier on Tuesday.

Striker Lee Casciaro, a policeman, scored in the 48th minute to condemn the former European champions to arguably their worst ever defeat on a night when former Liverpool boss Rodgers was making his competitive debut for Celtic.
