Derek McInnes rages VAR is 'doing his head in' after Kilmarnock red card as boss 'raging' at John Beaton

Derek McInnes has hit out at VAR officials stating they are 'doing his head in' after his Kilmarnock side were reduced to ten men in their 2-0 defeat to Hibernian.

Striker Kyle Vassell was sent off 20 minutes into the second half after an initial yellow card for a challenge on Marian Cabraja was upgraded by referee John Beaton following the intervention of VAR. Will Fish headed in the opener for the Easter Road side after just 16 minutes and a second from substitute Matthew Hoppe two minutes after the break earned them an advantage that rarely looked under threat.

Vassell could have dragged Killie level in the 24th minute but failed to get enough on his header as he directed Jordan Jones' brilliant in-swinging free-kick beyond the far post. McInnes raged after the game and question whether Beaton should have been called to the VAR screen in the first place.
