Dermot Gallagher has delivered his big verdict on Dundee United's penalty award against Celtic.
Alexandro Bernabei was punished for a handball offence after VAR intervened at Parkhead. The decision left Hoops boss Ange Postecoglou frustrated over the lengthy pause as officials poured over whether or not it was a spot-kick. It was eventually given, but the Parkhead gaffer was left seething on the sidelines over the time it took as he claimed the decision “didn’t even need VAR.”
Steven Fletcher converted the penalty to level the score at 1-1 after just 12 minutes with Celtic going on to claim a 4-2 win after two last-gasp goals to secure what proved to be a huge three points after United levelled with just minutes to play. That triumph coupled up with Rangers' defeat at St Johnstone leaves the champions seven points clear at the Premiership summit.
