Peeved Nick Montgomery believes Rangers were on the receiving end of two favourable decisions during Hibs' bruising 4-0 defeat at Ibrox.

The former Central Coast Mariners boss was left miffed VAR wasn't asked to take a second look at the build-up to Nico Raskin's long-range pearler that put Philippe Clement's side 2-0 up just before the break in first game in charge.

The Leith gaffer felt Joe Newell had been fouled by Sam Lammers in the build-up to Nico Raskin’s long-range strike. And Montgomery reckons the Belgian was fortunate not to be reprimanded as the Hibs boss reckoned Clement cushioned the ball on the touchline when it was still on play.

Speaking to BBC Sportsound about the events before Raskin found the net, he said: "The second goal, I really genuinely believe it is a foul on Newell.
