Rangers manager Derek McInnes confronted referee Nick Walsh after the draw against Dundee United.

The new Ibrox boss began his time in the dugout for the Glasgow club with a 1-1 draw at Tannadice on Friday night.

But he was left furious at full-time after his side were not awarded a penalty kick for a tackle on Mo Diomande in the closing stages.

The midfielder had gone down in the box after a tackle from Emmanuel Agyei, with a goal kick awarded by Walsh.

Sky Sports cameras then showed McInnes' stunned reaction at the sidelines as he thought his side should have had a penalty.

At full-time, McInnes marched onto the pitch and could be seen in animated discussion with Walsh before turning to walk off the pitch.
