Abdallah Sima had the ball in the net in the 59th minute, only for referee Nick Walsh to rule it out for a foul on Hoops keeper Joe Hart.
Philippe Clement questioned referee Nick Walsh’s decision to rule out a Rangers goal in the 150th anniversary Scottish Gas Scottish Cup final against Celtic before they lost 1-0 to a late Adam Idah strike.
However, when Walsh looked at his pitchside monitor he ruled a foul had been committed by Nico Raskin on Celtic keeper Joe Hart, before substitute Idah scored the winner in the last minute of normal time.Clement said: “The general thought is that you are disappointed that you lose because I think – no I don’t think, even people of Celtic were saying that and they are not really neutral – that we were the better team today.“We get two shots on target today, we get a goal.
“They are honest, they make their decisions. It is a grey area that one. It is not white or black. So he made the decision. Of course as a manager you are disappointed about that after the game. He said: “It is a really difficult shot. Jack was in the rest of the game really good, and Joe Hart was really good.
