Kris Boyd goes into Rangers hiding as pundit dodges Napoli interrogation with 'can I just go home' plea

Rangers favourite Kris Boyd attempted to dodge the Sky Sports cameras after Giovanni van Bronckhorst's side fell 3-0 behind Serie A side Napoli.

It was a bruising night for the Scottish Premiership side as Luciano Spaletti's side ran out winners in the Champions League, as they moved through the gears following James Sands red card in the second half. Allan McGregor had saved the retaken penalty from Piotr Zielinski - with Matteo Politano's rebound being ruled out after an initial VAR check. Despite that offering some home to the packed Ibrox crowd, hopes quickly faded when referee Antonio Mateu Lahoz pointed to the spot again.

Politano would convert the third spot kick of the evening before substitutes Giacomo Raspadori and Tanguy Ndombele completed the rout. By the time Tottenham loanee Ndombele piled the misery on late in the game, it was proving too much for pundit Boyd during his Sky Sports analysis duties.

The former Rangers star ducked out of the way of the camera when asked for his take on the third goal. He then chimed in: "I'm away, I'll speak to you Saturday, I'm away." He went on: "I said it was game over at 2-0. It's definitely game over now, can I just go home now?"
