Rangers successful with Alfredo Morelos red card appeal

Steven Gerrard reveals that Rangers were successful with their appeal against Alfredo Morelos's red card in last weekend's 1-1 draw with Aberdeen.

Rangers have won their appeal against the red card shown to Alfredo Morelos in last weekend's 1-1 Scottish Premiership draw with Aberdeen.

The Colombian striker was dismissed early on by referee Kevin Clancy following an off-the-ball clash with defender Scott McKenna.

Gers boss Steven Gerrard was unhappy with the decision, however, and hinted after the match that an appeal would be lodged with the Scottish Football Association.

Gerrard revealed at his pre-Maribor press conference on Wednesday that the red card has now been downgraded to a yellow, meaning that Morelos is able to feature in Sunday's league clash against St Mirren.

Speaking immediately after the match at Pittodrie, Dons boss Derek McInnes insisted that the referee was justified in his decision to give the Rangers man his marching orders.
