Michael Beale praised VAR for on a manic night for the technology at Tynecastle as he insists it would be wrong to label Ryan Kent a diver after he was booked for simulation when a penalty award was overturned.
Rangers had THREE goals disallowed - two from Fashion Sakala and one from Alfredo Morelos - by VAR for offside while another was awarded thanks to Kevin Clancy in the control room while John Beaton performed a U-turn on his spot kick award when Kent went down in the box with the replay showing there was no contact. Connor Goldson also survived a late penalty appeal against him for an alleged handball after a check.
The Light Blues won 3-0 thanks to a Morelos double either side of a Malik Tillman strike and Beale said: “I thought all of VAR was fair. There was one with Fashion Sakala where we had an angle on the touchline where it looked like he might have just been on. But it wasn’t. They’re getting a better view than me so I’ll praise them on getting decisions right.
