Judging from this I think he has been red carded because he appeared to deliberately have a go at him for having the temerity to simply be there.

 

 

Very hard to make a judgment from that but one thing is for sure, if this was Morelos he’d be slaughtered but the BBCs commentators kept saying how unjustified it was and didn’t qualify it at all.

Really?

 

Looks like a straightforward red card for an elbow to the face.

It's not great quality and while trying to be as unbiased as possible it looks like he deliberately gave him a smack in the face simply for being there trying to interfere as is his right.

There's one thing i'm supremely confident of though. If this had been our goalie and he had been red carded there would be overwhelming agreement that he deserved it.

Special mention for the Kilmarnock fans.

 

I think that might be the biggest away support we have seen this season.

 

They didn't go away unrewarded either.  They were so happy they Morelos was flagged for offside.  The cheer was so loud I thought I had missed a goal!

Agree. Instead of questioning the officials, they should be praising them. If you raise your hands to an opponents head/face, you are asking for trouble.

Great result and performance. What a difference Alfie makes to the team. I know he scored four but I actually thought Kamara ran him close for MOTM? I hope they are well up for the game v the sheep, they will have to be! Smashing effort tonight and special mention for Andy Halliday goal and finish⚽️? ???

Just seen it on Premier just now, there’s absolutely no question he deliberately moved his elbow into his face. Although Kamara probably made the most of it the outrage from the BBC and Premier sports commentators is totally hypocritical in light of how they treated McGregor and Morelos’s very similar transgressions this season. There was certainly more contact here than Morelos

made on McKenna so the way it’s being treated is very  frustrating.

This is an example of how closely some of them watch it while waiting to badmouth Morelos.

BBC Scotland website didn't help matters by stating it was Morelos on the match feed for about 20 minutes.
