BBC Scotland pundit Michael Stewart believes there is ‘no doubt’ that Celtic’s second goal on the night against Hearts should have counted after being disallowed for a supposed offside decision.

Shortly after getting themselves back into the game through Tony Ralston’s equaliser, the Hoops added what they thought to be was their second goal of the game to go 2-1 up.

However, the assistant referee on the far side judged left-back Greg Taylor to be offside after setting up Liel Abada with a cut-back.

Speaking on last night’s Sportscene, the former Hearts midfielder – Michael Stewart, insisted that Celtic were very unlucky not to have this decision go their way on the night.

“This is a goal; there’s no doubt about it. Greg Taylor is onside here. He’s played onside by Souttar and Michael Smith.

“It’s very, very tight. These incidents can go against you on occasion. It’s very unfortunate for Celtic. Smith and Souttar are playing him on. His arm is offside, but you can’t score with your arm, so he’s not offside.

“But if Celtic are hanging their hopes on marginal decisions like that, I think that tells you everything you need to know.”

It is extremely frustrating when decisions like that don’t go your way, especially with the way the game finished on Saturday.

That being said, we should have had more than enough to take something from the game at Tynecastle.

At the point in the game in which we scored, we had the upper hand and should have pushed on to add a few more goals. We simply didn’t do that and weren’t good enough in the end.

As frustrating as these decisions can be, ultimately, we should be doing a lot more to take home the points than hoping decisions can go for us in a game.
