5 big VAR calls from Kilmarnock vs Rangers as THREE handball flashpoints sparks ‘weird’ Clement

verdict

With all three points, the league leaders returned down the M77, but some surprising choices were

made.

Philippe Clement called it WEIRD that Rangers were not handed a penalty at Rugby Park, considering

Kilmarnock had been awarded a spot kick for a handball of a similar nature.

The perplexed Belgian’s remarks were made just a few hours after veteran referee Steve Conroy

expressed his concerns that a VAR ruling might decide the outcome of the Scottish Premiership

championship match.

After a lackluster first half performance in which they were behind early on due to a penalty kick by

decisive three points in Ayrshire.

Andrew Dallas was on VAR duty and didn’t see it as a clear and obvious error worth sending the man in

the middle to the monitor to review. But then an incident at the other end late on left Clement perplexed.

The fixture wasn’t beamed live on Sky Sports so the pundits didn’t give a string of incidents the usual

were also scratching their head at a few. Here, Record Sport picks out five that were debatable in
