Alex Cochrane Hearts vs Celtic red card analysed as Dermot Gallagher delivers Ref Watch verdict

Dermot Gallagher has delivered his view on the big talking point from Celtic's win over Hearts at Tynecastle.

The Hoops secured the Scottish Premiership title in the capital after a 2-0 win over the ten-man hosts. Kyogo Furuhashi netted his 30th goal of the season and his 50th overall for the club while Oh Hyeong-gyu also got in on the scorning act to spark wild celebrations in the stands with thousands also making the trip to Parkhead to party late into the evening to show their appreciation to Ange Postecoglou and his champions with the boss delivering a rousing speech to the big crowd in the east end.

But the main talking point from the Sunday clash came as Alex Cochrane's yellow card for a foul on Daizen Maeda was upgraded to a red by referee Nick Walsh after being advised by VAR official Willie Collum to go to the screen for a second look at the flashpoint incident just before half-time.
