Scottish FA refereeing boss Willie Collum admits Rangers should have been awarded a penalty in the League Cup final against Celtic.
Celtic defender Liam Scales brought down Vaclav Cerny in the first half of extra time, but referee John Beaton ruled that the incident took place outside the penalty area.
VAR Alan Muir and assistant Frank Connor did not overturn the decision on the pitch, with the score 3-3 before Rangers lost in a shootout.
However, Collum told the SFA's VAR Review Show: “The hold (of Cerny's shirt) starts outside the penalty area and then continues on the line and probably off the line and completely into the penalty area. Regardless, the fact is that on line this should be considered a penalty kick.”
