The Ibrox showdown delivered many key talking points and the former whistler has offered his opinion on the key calls
The former SPFL whistler has taken to social media to share his opinion on the penalty awarded against Connor Goldson, the Fabio Silva simulation reversal after a VAR intervention and the disallowed goal from Cyriel Dessers after a check for a foul at the start of the attacking phase of play in the build-up to what would have been a quick-fire second and leveller for the hosts had it stood.
In the end the match ended in a share of the spoils with both sides sharing six goals in a pulsating derby. The Hoops raced into a two-goal lead at the interval after opening the scoring after just 21 seconds through Daizen Maeda. Matt O'Riley grabbed a second from the spot before Rangers hit back with James Tavernier's own spot-kick in the second period.
Record Sport had former whistler Steve Conroy on ref watch duty for the big game and he exclusively delivered his expert view on the major incidents. The ex-official was in agreement with Madden on two of the big calls but Silva's penalty award is one the duo could not be further apart on with Conroy branding it an 'appalling decision'On field decision - No penaltyGiven the current criteria this is a penalty. If you are the minority that don’t think it’s correct, blame the criteria.
This is a penalty. Yes, there attacker had been falling regularly, but you can only judge this incident. His reaction is theatrical but you can’t ignore the fact that the defender is turned and makes clear contact with the attackers thigh. The defender makes minimal contact with the ball which is not significant enough to justify the contact the follows as the attacker would retain possession. Some people asking for a second caution for the defender, that’s not warranted.
A similar contact to the penalty award. This is how the attacking team won possession and where the attacking phase of possession is checked from. This foul can’t be ignored and the goal has to be disallowed.
