Livingston boss David Martindale reckons his side could have had a penalty against Celtic as he claimed Paulo Bernardo handled the ball.The first-half flashpoint would come before a quick-fire one-two punch from Brendan Rodgers side as Kyogo Furuhashi and Liam Scales got on the scoresheet to put the game beyond the Scottish Premiership's rock bottom side.
In the build-up to the head knock to Tom Parkes - which saw him forced off - the defender thumped the ball towards goal and it appeared to strike the hand of the Benfica loanee on the edge of the box, before Cameron Carter-Vickers would eventually clear the danger.Referee Matthew MacDermid did not point to the spot while Alan Muir in the VAR room also did not seen any need to intervene to assist the man in the middle.
However, Martindale was convinced following the full-time whistle that the ball had struck the hand of Bernardo before the break.Asked about the Celtic flashpoint, he said: “I’d need to see it slowed down.
It’s a handball. They said his hand was inside, but we’re on the iPad and we didn't have chance to zoom in to see whether it’s a shirt line or below."I think it’s hand but whether it’s a pen or not, I couldn’t see.”
