Kris Boyd admitted he's unsure whether Rangers' penalty against Celtic should've stood today.

John Beaton pointed to the spot during the second-half of today's 2-2 derby match at Ibrox.

With the game level at 1-1, it was a big moment in the crunch game.

Carl Starfelt appeared to upend Fashion Sakala as he chopped inside the Swede inside the area.

Beaton didn't hesitate to point to the spot, as James Tavernier stepped up to make it 2-1 to the hosts. 

While Boyd wasn't convinced it was a nailed-on spot kick, ex-Celtic hero Stiliyan Petrov was, with the pair appearing as pundits on Sky Sports.

Petrov said: "This is the one that really blows me away. Definitely a penalty. Definitely a penalty."

Boyd responded: "I'm still not sure whether it's a penalty or not. I think Sakala stands on Starfelt. I know he goes to ground and the rules are rules, but forget it, it's given. You've got to say, what a penalty kick it is. You stick it in the top corner." 

The former Scotland international added: "Can Rangers beat Celtic in a game, yeah they could but Rangers' problems are elsewhere. Celtic just seem to be steamrolling over the top of every team in the Scottish Premiership.

"You felt as if there was any hope Rangers would have had to win today but they haven't, and for me it's over. To judge Rangers it was always going to be on today in terms of have they improved recently. They have there is no doubt about it but there is a long way to go.

"It was an underperforming Celtic squad that have came and left with a point. If you are going to challenge Celtic over the course of the season you are going to have to get player in."
