Neil Lennon offers engaging referee proposal amid Celtic’s VAR debacle at Tynecastle

Celtic’s 2-0 loss to Heart of Midlothian on the road last Sunday cost them the opportunity to take the lead in the Scottish Premiership. The game was marred by incidents.

After some controversial judgments were made using VAR, Brendan Rodgers expressed his dissatisfaction with the referees openly.

Referee Don Robertson was called to the monitor and then returned to issue a straight red card to South Korea international Hyunjun Yang for a challenge on Alex Cochrane that was previously thought to be worthy of a yellow card.

After being reduced to ten players, the Bhoys were further bad luck, as VAR stepped in and determined that Tomoki Iwata had handled in the penalty area. This gave Jorge Grant a chance to score from the spot, which he took advantage of.

With the game effectively decided in the second half, Lawrence Shankland’s scoring run continued, returning Celtic to their starting position in the Scottish Premiership title chase.

As we all know, the officials have taken center stage in the conversation surrounding the events at Tynecastle, leading Rodgers to assert that Yang’s firing hurt his team as a result.

“The decision was made by the referee, and someone else decided to say it was a sending-off,” he said. Thus, in major games that are costly, that is the game that is being refereed off the field.

After the turmoil surrounding Celtic VAR, Neil Lennon proposes a referee solution.

Another VAR scandal in the Scottish Premiership has sparked a lot of discussion, and it is unlikely that this one will stop anytime soon because these stories may make the news for weeks at a time.
