Rangers and Celtic incidents get Ref Watch verdict as Dermot Gallagher tells Craig Gordon he got away with one

Former English Premier League referee Dermot Gallagher believes that Hearts stopper Craig Gordon 'couldn't have argued too much' had Scott Arfield's goal counted for Rangers at Tynecastle on Saturday lunchtime.

A brace from Antonio Colak preceded further additions from the returning Alfredo Morelos and Ryan Kent - with the latter bagging his first goal of 2022 - as fans saw Rangers run riot in Gorgie against Robbie Neilson's 10-men who struggled from the get go.

It could have been three at the interval following Colak's brilliance as Arfield tapped the ball into an empty net after Gordon had parried a Borna Barisic cross straight into his path with the goal gaping. However the former Burnley man's celebrations were cut short after Gordon was adjudged to have been fouled by new signing Rabbi Matondo in the build-up; and Gallagher believes it was the wrong decision with the Scotland No. 1 already committing to the challenge.
