Scottish FA chief executive Ian Maxwell admits some “decisions will be wrong” and that is down to “human nature” in response to Rangers’ frustration at being denied an extra-time penalty in Sunday’s Premier Sports Cup final defeat against Celtic.

Video assistant referee (VAR) officials failed to alert referee John Beaton that Liam Scales’ tug on Vaclav Cerny’s jersey appeared to occur on the line, rather than just outside the box.

With the match poised at 3-3, Scales was booked for the offence and James Tavernier hit the resultant free-kick over the crossbar.

With no further scoring at Hampden, the final was settled on a penalty shoot-out and Celtic prevailed after Kasper Schmeichel saved from Ridvan Yilmaz.

“Decisions will be wrong, that’s a given,” Maxwell told the Press Association without giving a specific answer on the matter. “We’ll eradicate them as much as we can.

“VAR has done that in a vast majority of cases. There are always going to be one or two that will fall out with that, because there’s people involved and in anything that involves a person, there will be decisions that are incorrect. That’s human nature.”
