The former Rangers manager therefore reacted to the unnecessary delay saying it took the wind out of their sails.

“The linesman said it was to do with Jacob impeding Cavani’s run.”
“It wasn’t that complex to need three-and-a-half minutes and it’s disappointing as we were in a good place at the time and that took a bit of sting out of the game.”
