Why John Souttar wasn't shown red card for Hibs' handball as ex ref defends Rangers star from 'blinkered individuals'

Former SFA referee Bobby Madden insists that Rangers' defender John Souttar should not have been shown a red card for denying a goal in the clash with Hibs.

And he disagreed with Philippe Clement - who insisted that a penalty should have not even been awarded during the Scottish Premiership showdown.

The Easter Road side had the chance to level at Ibrox when Mykola Kukharevych saw his shot from close range hit the hand of Souttar as he attempted to block the shot.

The VAR team would again step in after whistler Walsh had initially waved play on - with Nick Walsh then pointing to the penalty spot.
