Slovenian whistler Matej Jug was set to become the pantomime villain until Scotland’s stunning comeback against Norway rendered him an afterthought.
But footage of those two late goals from Lyndon Dykes and Kenny McLean that provoked ‘absolute scenes’ amongst the Tartan Army has thrust the ropey ref back under the microscope.
He was primed to become public enemy No.1 after awarding the softest of penalties as Ryan Porteous got to grips with Erling Haaland in the box, not long after the striker had had a little kneel in the box after trying to escape the attentions of Jack Hendry.
In fairness to the Man City powerhouse, Hendry was perhaps fortunate to get away with clinging onto his arm, so chalk another one up to Mr Jug.
