The decision from Don Robertson to chalk off Kemar Roofe's goal in the derby left a lot of Gers fans irate and even had Hoops legend Hartson scratching his head at how it was disallowed.
Celtic hero John Hartson has admitted he felt Rangers' goal in their derby defeat should have stood, as he insisted he was left amazed his former club got a decision in their favour at Ibrox.
Michael Beale's men then were dealt another blow when Kyogo Furuhashi blasted the opener beyond Jack Butland, with the Gers unable to recover from his goal late on in the opening 45. Hartson believes Lagerbeilke was 'very clever' in luring Alan Muir in the VAR hot seat into calling Robertson over to the monitor to check the foul. Nigeria striker Dessers managed to stay on his feet and tee up his team-mate in what many felt should have been a free-kick for Rangers.
He told talkSPORT: “First of all I’m really really surprised Celtic got a decision at Ibrox. I’ve been there, I’ve had goals disallowed and all sorts of things going on.
