BBC coverage revealed it wasn't given because Ben Davies' arm was in a 'natural' position.

Celtic didn't get a penalty after the ball hit Ben Davies' arm in the Rangers box at Hampden - because it was a 'natural movement' from the defender.

It sparked roars for a penalty from the East End at the National Stadium and with VAR in play, there were hopes of a Celtic persuasion that it would have been given. But whistler Nick Walsh wasn't having it and John Beaton in the VAR room didn't see fit to call him over to the monitor. Alan Hutton echoed: “His arm is in a natural position. Totally," before Stewart added: “Players are moving out the way in front of him and it comes to him. His arm is in a natural position.”
