NEW footage released after Hearts’ 2-2 draw with Celtic shows Jambos boss Derek McInnes reacting furiously to the visiting dugout after the opening goal.
Celtic star Benjamin Nygren opened the scoring with a fine free kick to send the visiting support at Tynecastle into raptures.
Hearts equalised through a Stuart Findlay header as the Gorgie outfit once again displayed their superiority from set pieces.
New Hoops signing Tomas Cvancara had an important role to play in Celtic‘s second goal as they restored their lead with the striker setting up Yang for a tap-in.
Martin O’Neill‘s side were reduced to 10 men after VAR intervention when Auston Trusty was deemed to have prevented a goalscoring opportunity as Landry Kabore raced through on goal.
Celtic have said they will appeal that decision.

And Claudio Braga smashed in a late leveller for Hearts with a fine half volley.
The result leaves the gap at the top of the Scottish Premiership to just four points, as the three-way title race between Hearts, Rangers and Celtic intensifies.
But one of the main talking points of the match of which there were many was McInnes’ furious reaction to Nygren’s opener.
He later revealed after the game it was down to the “reaction” of one of Celtic’s “inexperienced coaches” .
He told Sky Sports: “One of their inexperienced coaches, I didn’t like his reaction to scoring the goal.

“Nothing to do with Shaun or Martin, just a poor reaction.”
Now new footage has emerged appearing to show incident from a different angle on the Celtic YouTube channel.
The clip shows Nygren running over to the Celtic bench cupping his ear to celebrate with staff, and probably wasn’t expecting McInnes to be one of the first people he encountered in the Hoops technical area.
McInnes is furiously making hand gestures at the Celtic bench clearly annoyed at something and it appears as though Shaun Maloney tries to calm him down.
He is then blocked out of shot as the rest of the Hoops players come over to join in the celebrations.
McInnes is then ushered back into his own technical area by the fourth official Calum Scott before Maloney walks over to the Hearts dugout to see what riled the Jambos boss who again makes gestures.
The camera the pans away as the Celtic celebrations continue.
