Nuno has thrown his hands up and the ref has probably seen the footage of earlier in the season.
While the Rangers supporters must remain convinced Porto passed off a body double of Capucho to their club last summer, they will take great comfort from the return of De Boer who is certainly capable of filling a starring role for the toiling champions in the remainder of the campaign.

THERE is not yet a “Nuno Capucho Loyal” but when they stop to consider how much of a nuisance he has been to Celtic over the years Rangers fans may soon be tempted to name a supporters’ club after their new signing.

Capucho captained Portugal in a friendly against England last year, was at Euro 2000 and last year’s World Cup finals, and has reached the quarter-finals of the Champions League.

Capucho at last looked like the player McLeish had insisted he was, despite all those earlier displays to the contrary, and set up Mols for a "goal" with a perfect flick-on of a long ball from Michael Ball.
