Footage shows Scott McTominay's grandfather raging at VAR after disallowed goal

The Manchester United midfielder was the victim of a controversial decision when his stunning free-kick was ruled out for an alleged offence from Jack Hendry in the penalty area.

The defender was adjudged to be offside, while also impeding Unai Simon's ability to stop the set piece as it was whipped in from near the byline.

One man who was less than happy with the decision was McTominay's grandfather who appeared on the midfielder's Instagram story with the caption 'Grandpa not happy with VAR'.

Speaking in the video, he said: "I thought that was bad, I thought that was a winning goal. I was very disappointed with it," to which the Scotland midfielder replied: "So was I".

The decision has made waves north of the border due to the potential impact that it could have on Scotland's qualification for Euro 2024.
