Ryan Kent facing two-match ban after Old Firm derby shove

Liverpool loanee and Rangers winger Ryan Kent is in line to receive a two-match ban following a shove on Celtic captain Scott Brown.

An angered Kent pushed Brown after James Forrest bagged a late winning goal in the Old Firm derby at Celtic Park.

The 22-year-old was given a notice of complaint following the game which claimed that he had committed a red card offence.

The ban could go to a Scottish FA tribunal hearing should Rangers choose to contest it.

The Old Firm game was a heated affair, with Alfredo Morelos sent off for elbowing Brown off-the-ball – the captain later celebrated in front of the Rangers fans at full-time.

Kent managed to avoid being red-carded during the game but will now face the prospect of missing the next two matches for Steven Gerrard’s side.
