Passionate Kenny Miller dismissed claims of a conspiracy from a furious Rangers fan after tensions flared over Abdallah Sima’s disallowed goal against Celtic. Meanwhile, Philippe Clement expressed frustration with referee Nick Walsh during the Scottish Cup Final, where his team suffered a 1-0 defeat to Adam Idah’s late goal, leaving them with only the League Cup as a consolation prize for the season.
After VAR ruled out Sima’s goal due to a foul on Joe Hart by Nicolas Raskin, Celtic’s Callum McGregor lifted the trophy at Hampden while discussions continued on Clyde 1 Superscoreboard. The irate fan, Paul, pointed fingers at Greg Taylor for the foul on Hart and accused Walsh of making the game feel like playing against “12 men.”
However, Miller stood firm, defending the correct decision made by the team. He highlighted the importance of following VAR protocols, especially when it comes to protecting goalkeepers. Miller emphasized that any contact with the goalkeeper must be avoided, and in this case, Sima’s actions clearly interfered with Hart’s ability to defend the goal.
Ultimately, Miller believed that the right call was made and stressed the importance of upholding the rules of the game, especially when it comes to VAR decisions that can impact the outcome of matches.
