Celtic manager Brendan Rodgers had strong words with the officials after his side's 2-1 defeat at Easter Road this afternoon.
Josh Campbell's brace had the hosts 2-0 up at the break, although Daizen Maeda got the visitors back into the game after a mishit Reo Hatate shot.

Soon after, the Japanese winger thought he had drawn Celtic level, only for his strike to be disallowed because the ball was adjudged to have gone out of play in the buildup.
Boss Rodgers looked incensed at full-time when complaining to referee Steven McLean and one of his linesmen about the incident:

Rodgers outlined post-match how he thought Alan Muir had a guess at whether the ball had gone out of play or not before Maeda's eventually disallowed strike.
He hopes there is clear footage that proves the officials are correct.
Today was Celtic's second league defeat of the season. They will look to bounce back against Aberdeen midweek.
