Scott Brown cleared to face Rangers after winning red card appeal

The Scottish Football Association gives Scott Brown the green light to face Rangers this weekend after reducing the red card shown to him against Ross County to a yellow.

Celtic skipper Scott Brown is available to face Rangers in the Scottish Premiership on Saturday after winning his appeal against the red card received against Ross County.

The 31-year-old was sent off for a challenge on Liam Boyce in the closing stages of the Bhoys' 2-2 draw at Dingwall on April 16.

Brown's dismissal has been reduced on appeal by the Scottish Football Association to just a yellow card for what was perceived as a 'reckless challenge'.

Celtic's decision to appeal the decision also ensured that Brown was free to face Rangers in last weekend's Scottish Cup semi-final at Hampden Park.

A 2-0 win in that Old Firm showdown has left Brendan Rodgers's men on course for a domestic treble.
