REF WATCH

- DES ROACHE

Don's our top ref and this clash proves it

THIS Scottish Cup clash will be remembered mostly for the worrying pitch invasion chaos that followed Tomas Cvancara’s winning penalty.

But it had been a game referee Don Robertson will be happy with and Grade One whistler Des Roache reckons he managed it well.

TRUSTY HANDBALL SHOUT

Youssef Chermiti’s strike appeared to hit the arm of Auston Trusty. Replays showed the arm was tucked into his body. Ref Robertson gave nothing. After a VAR review, Andrew Dallas elected not to intervene.

Decision: No handball, no penalty.
