Motherwell's draw with Hearts has been scrutinized by Scottish Football head of referees Willie Collum, who believes the Jambos should have been awarded a penalty. Collum analysed key decisions in the William Hill Premiership title race, which went to the final seconds of the season before Celtic triumphed over Hearts. The disputed decision occurred when Steven McLean went to the monitor after video assistant Greg Aitken flagged up a challenge by Tawanda Maswanhise on Alexandros Kyziridis. Collum told Sky Sports' VAR Review Show that once the referee comes to the monitor, the expected decision and preferred decision would be a penalty kick. Motherwell's Emmanuel Longelo was not punished for handball in the same game, a decision Collum backed as really good, accurate on-field decision-making. The referee ruled the ball hit above the T-shirt line. Collum also backed his match officials over the disputed stoppage-time handball decision against Motherwell's Sam Nicholson, which allowed Celtic to seal a 3-2 win. Video assistant Andrew Dallas told referee John Beaton that the ball definitely hits his hand and that Nicholson's arm is in an unnatural position above shoulder height. Collum claimed there was clear evidence of handball and backed Beaton's swift review as the work has already been done to determine contact with the hand. He claimed contact with Auston Trusty, which forced the Motherwell midfielder's arm up, was irrelevant, because Sam Nicholson's hand and arm are already in an unnatural position and then it moves further into an unnatural position. Collum described another Celtic penalty appeal in the same game as a really tough decision after Calum Ward and Daizen Maeda collided, saying he would discuss the incident with clubs. The Scottish Football head of referees also backed referee Nick Walsh over the decision to book Celtic's Alistair Johnston for a foul on Rangers winger Mikey Moore. Don Robertson said the contact is mainly on the top of the foot and maybe a very, very small glance above that. Robertson was also backed over his decision that the offside Benjamin Nygren was not interfering with play at Celtic's equaliser, given there was no impact on the line of vision of goalkeeper Jack Butland. Collum stated that Nygren should have had a penalty against Hibernian, saying Josh Campbell completely ignores the ball and it's a two-handed push. The VAR team was backed for refusing to disallow Hibs midfielder Joe Newell's goal because of inconclusive evidence of handball. Motherwell will look to bounce back from the draw with Hearts in their next match, with the club's fans eager to see an improvement in their team's performance. The match against Hearts was a closely contested affair, with both teams creating scoring opportunities. Motherwell's players will be looking to learn from their mistakes and come back stronger in their next game. The club's manager will be working with the players to identify areas for improvement and develop a strategy to take on their next opponents. Motherwell's fans will be hoping for a positive result in the next match, and the team will be looking to deliver a strong performance.
