ANTHONY RALSTON insists that the Celtic players will not be affected by the stoppages in play brought about by the introduction of VAR to the cinch Premiership.
The right-back played the full 113 minutes as the champions secured a thrilling 4-3 win over Hearts that – coupled with Rangers’ 1-1 draw with Livingston – opened up a four-point gap with their Glasgow rivals at the top of the table.
It was the first televised Scottish top-flight game where VAR was in use and its influence was felt on the match, with numerous big calls being given a second look by Steven McLean back at Clydesdale House.
