Alistair Johnston agrees with Celtic VAR call as defender 'knew' Alfredo Morelos goal would be disallowed

Celtic defender Alistair Johnston claimed he 'knew' Alfredo Morelos' goal would be ruled out after what appeared to be a foul on the Canadian in Saturday's 3-2 win over Rangers.

With the score at 0-0, Morelos bundled over the line, albeit bundling Johnston over in the process as referee Kevin Clancy blew his whistle to keep the scores level. The decision went to VAR, with co-commentator Ally McCoist branding the decision 'embarrassing' and 'a laughing stock' with the final decision being to disallow the goal.

And the right-back, who was awarded Man of the Match, said he 'knew' the decision would go in his favour.
