5 Ross County vs Celtic ref calls as Daizen Maeda 'caught' before penalty snub with Nicolas Kuhn cleared of red by IFAB

It was a day of controversy at Dingwall as Celtic left it late to see off Ross County.

And referee Kevin Clancy and the VAR team were almost as busy as they players with a host of incidents to pull apart. Ross County took the lead in Dingwall after Liam Scales was punished for a handball following an intervention from the off-field team - while Ronan Hale was allowed two bites at the spot kick after VAR stepped in again, with Kasper Schmeichel having come off his line too quickly for the officials' liking.

In the end Brendan Rodgers' men went on to turn the game around and claim a big three points thanks to Alistair Johnston and Nicolas Kuhn - but there was even debate about THAT call as Staggies boss Don Cowie vented his fury after the full-time whistle. But were all the big calls right? Record Sport takes a look.

The Celtic defender initially saw play waved on after he appeared to handle the ball in the box - but Kevin Clancy was called over to the pitchside monitor to check the incident by the VAR team. That allowed Ronan Hale the chance to step up to the penalty spot - and former Celtic hero Aiden McGeady conceded that the Ireland international couldn't argue with the match officials.

He said: "Yeah, there's no complaints over that at all. I don't think he was even complaining himself. It's a penalty kick all day long."

Kasper Schmeichel would deny Hale from the spot-kick - but Ronan Hale would be allowed a re-take with the Danish international judged to be off his line by the VAR team. Watching back the incident, Chris Sutton backed up the officials on commentary for Sky Sports: "He is a yard off. He goes so early, and it's the correct decision."
