6 Nick Walsh calls in Rangers vs Aberdeen as Ryan Kent escapes VAR scrutiny for Liam Scales swipe

There were talking points aplenty when Aberdeen collided with Rangers in Mount Florida on Viaplay Cup semi-final action - it wasn't going to be any other way, was it?

It's the Ibrox side who will face Celtic in the final after coming from behind to win 2-1. Michael Beale's side were unfortunate not to be ahead early doors when Fashion Sakala hit the post but Bojan Miovski was soon to be up the early end scoring, although his Aberdeen opener was ruled out for offside. He found himself in a similar position before the half ended but his opponents went to sleep as Matty Kennedy arrived from deep to set him up for an eventual opener.

Ryan Jack stored parity for the men in blue as his strike deflected off Liam Scales and into Kelle Roos' net after the hour mark. As the game headed for extra-time, Anthony Stewart scythed down Fashion Sakala, receiving red and punished by Kemar Roofe who completed the Rangers turnaround. It turned from calm to crazy in a matter of minutes and Record Sport takes a look at the big calls made by referee Nick Walsh and VAR officials Alan Muir and Alan Mulvanny.
