Clancy right not to award Celtic spot kick against Hibs - Collum

Kevin Clancy was right not to award Celtic a penalty against Hibernian in the Glasgow side's recent Scottish League Cup victory, Scottish FA head of referees Willie Collum has concluded.

Collum highlighted eight controversial incidents in The VAR Review, a new monthly show on the Scottish FA's YouTube channel, saying he was "content with the start we've made".

However, he concluded that Celtic should have been awarded a penalty in their 4-0 win over Kilmarnock, while Dundee United ought to have had a spot-kick for hand ball in their 2-2 draw with Dundee - both on the opening Premiership weekend.

Celtic 3-1 Hibernian - 18 August

Celtic eased aside Hibs 3-1 to reach the League Cup quarter-finals but felt they should have had a spot kick when winger James Forrest was sandwiched between two visiting defenders.

However, Collum concluded that, although there was a coming together of upper bodies, referee Clancy and VAR officials were correct to say there was "not enough contact for a penalty kick" from centre-back Marvin Ekpiteta.
