Celtic fans should be seething with rage at half-time in their UEFA Champions League qualifier against Malmo, as they have not only had a goal ruled out and a penalty not given, but those two things happened within two seconds of each other.

Malmo took the lead when captain Markus Rosenberg headed home from a corner after some poor marking, but Celtic have had some good spells of pressure and absolutely should be level going into half time.

As Stuart Armstrong delivered a corner, this handball went totally unpunished, and after Celtic had the ball in the net right after, a free-out was given:

Not only did the ref miss it, but the super important and very necessary extra official standing 5 yards away missed it too.

And a free-out? Pull the other one.

You'd have to hope that karma balances itself out in the second half, but a goal right before half time would have had the Bhoys bouncing.
