ian1964 10,761 Posted April 10, 2018 Share Posted April 10, 2018 (edited) Rangers lodge appeal against hitman Alfredo Morelos’ booking for diving against Dundee The Ibrox striker faces a one-match ban after picking up his sixth yellow card of the season but that could be overturned at Thursday's hearing. RANGERS have lodged an appeal against Alfredo Morelos’ yellow card for diving at the weekend. The Colombian striker was booked by referee Greg Aitken in a late flash-point in the 4-0 win over Dundee on Saturday. But Ibrox boss Graeme Murty branded the decision ‘ludicrous’ after Dundee keeper Elliott Parish had to be substituted with a facial injury after the incident, indicating contact. Murty said: “The goalkeeper has unfortunately felt the impact of his foot and how a ref can then judge that a dive is quite beyond me.” Morelos’ caution was his sixth this season, which means a one-match ban unless the disciplinary tribunal overturn the booking at Thursday’s hearing. https://www.thescottishsun.co.uk/sport/football/2480984/rangers-appeal-alfredo-morelos-dive-dundee/ Edited April 12, 2018 by ian1964 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

the gunslinger 3,366 Posted April 11, 2018 Share Posted April 11, 2018 Possibly the worst decision i have seen since the mad one where the team scored. The defender caught the ball and handed it to the keeper and the ref told the keeper to play on. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
