Ange Postecoglou has fired back at rival managers as he insisted the only penalties Celtic get to take are in training after a controversial VAR snub.

The Scottish Premiership leaders ran out winners in the seven-goal thriller with Hearts with the introduction of the video assistant referee system taking centre stage in the capital. With Hearts scoring two penalties through Lawrence Shankland, After the full-time whistle Postecoglou insisted Celtic should have had a spot kick following a handball from Gorgie defender Michael Smith.

The Celtic boss was critical of VAR ahead of the match, and did not have concerns eased following the clash win the capital. And he feels those who reckon his side get the big calls are wide of the mark with Celtic yet to be awarded a spot kick this season. He said: "I don't like the standing about. I don't think we here to wait for people to make decisions. I think we had a clear cut handball, but apparently that's not good enough for a penalty.

"I keep hearing opposition managers saying we get everything, the only penalties we've taken so far are in training. I'm looking forward to one."
