Deila blasts ref after Bhoys bow out to Inter

The Scottish champions were more than holding their own until Dutch defender Virgil van Dijk was sent off in the 36th minute after picking up the second of two yellow cards, the first for a foul on Rodrigo Palacio, the next for tangling with Mauro Icardi.
