Elie Youan Hibs red card earns Ref Watch verdict as Dermot Gallagher explains Celtic penalty call

Elie Youan's red card against Celtic has come under the microscope by former top referee Dermot Gallagher.

There were more than a few decisions at Parkhead on Saturday that caught the eye of pundits and fans alike with a couple of penalties awarded in a 3-1 win for Ange Postecoglou's men. First Carl Starfelt was penalised via a VAR review for a shirt pull before his defensive partner Cameron Carter-Vickers went down in the area after a tussle with Paul Hanlon.

Hibs star Youan saw red for a second booking after raising a boot in a tussle with Carter-Vickers, a decision that irked boss Lee Johnson and club chief Ben Kensell who reportedly confronted on-field official Steven McLean after the defeat. Gallagher insists Youan's red was a 'strange one'.
