Kris Boyd goes against the Rangers grain as he calls out Michael Beale and James Tavernier 'handball' claims

Bemused Kris Boyd admits he is struggling to see evidence to back up claims from Rangers boss Michael Beale and captain James Tavernier over a Jota 'handball'.

Both Beale and Tavernier insisted officials – referee Kevin Clancy and Nick Walsh in the VAR room – had got a big call wrong in their post match debrief, stating the Celtic winger had handled the ball in the build-up to Kyogo's second goal on derby day. Mystified Boyd admitted he was struggling to see the angle the Ibrox duo had caught the goal from post match as he backed up the men in black.

Asked if he agreed with the Jota handball, Boyd told Sky Sports: 'Well, no. I don't know what angle James Tavernier has managed to see a handball there. You can tell the way Jota reacts exactly where it has hit. Again, if I am James Tavernier I am coming out and saying more about my defending.
