How is that not a penalty? Kris Boyd put in his place

As ever Kris Boyd was playing to the gallery during Sky Sports’ coverage of Celtic’s 2-0 win away to Ross County.

With the exception of one club every side in the SPFL Premiership has suffered from penalties being awarded post VAR that wouldn’t have been given previously.

From his first appearance on today’s show from Dingwall Boyd was a picture of misery, no doubt anticipating an away win in the build up to the fixture he dreads on Saturday April 8.

In the final minute of the first half Alex Iacovitti rose with Cameron Carter-Vickers to deal with a cross from the Celtic left.

For extra security the Ross County defender had his arm at full extension with the ball striking him.

Once highlighted by VAR it was a cut and dried decision, Jota netted with Boyd mumbling his unhappiness at the decision and outcome, referencing a bad decision against Kilmarnock as his justification.

Hopefully the former Scotland striker will be just as upset on Saturday afternoon.
