HomeSportFootballRangers FC Rangers demand SFA release VAR audio from Celtic penalty snub as club claim Sky ‘deeply unhappy’ after flashpoint

In the last moments of the first half at Celtic Park, Alistair Johnston seemed to control the ball.
Rangers, who were refused a penalty at Celtic Park, have demanded that the SFA make the VAR audio from the match public.

Before the half, Alistair Johnston and Rangers striker Abdallah Sima looked to wrestle inside the area, with Johnston attempting to move the ball out of play with his hand. While Willie Collum’s VAR room supported the official and originally seemed to reject charges of a handball, referee Nick Walsh did not point to the spot. Pundits James McFadden, Neil Lennon, and Kris Boyd would argue on Sky at the halftime break that the Celtic star ought to have been given a red card for a handball.
During a pause in play, pundit Ian Crocker tried to set the record straight, stating that he had now been informed that the key talking point—not penalising the home team—was due to a possible offside in the build-up. Rangers have now requested clarification, and the recording has been made public.
