Controversial penalty calls enrage Lennon

Neil Lennon looks likely to be locking horns yet again with the Scottish Football Association following Celtic’s William Hill Scottish Cup semi-final defeat by Hearts at Hampden yesterday which saw him march on to the pitch to confront referee Euan Norris after the Hoops lost to a late penalty.

Extra-time appeared probable when Parkhead striker Gary Hooper levelled Rudi Skacel’s opener with four minutes remaining.

However, in the 90th minute Norris dramatically pointed to the spot after a shot from Jambos skipper Marius Zaliukas hit the arm of Joe Ledley and substitute Craig Beattie, a former Parkhead striker, scored to set up the first Hearts versus Hibernian final since 1896.
