(Reuters) - Celtic captain Scott Brown has praised the early impact of new coach Brendan Rodgers as they prepare for their Champions League third qualifying round second leg against Astana on Wednesday.

Rodgers moved to Celtic in May after being sacked by Liverpool in October 2015, and has already made a big impression at his new club, overseeing a change in playing style and introducing new faces such as defender Kolo Toure.
