Rangers' Alfredo Morelos Sent Off For Goading Motherwell Fans

Colombian striker Alfredo Morelos looks set to make the headlines for all the wrong reasons again after the Rangers man was sent off during the club's Scottish Premiership clash with Motherwell.

Having been at the receiving end of taunts from the home fans for much of the game, Morelos scored his side's second goal in the 69th minute, before responding in his own unique way with some rather unsavoury gestures.

The 23-year-old hasn't always conducted himself in the best manner since he arrived at the Ibrox Stadium in 2017. Until today, he had gone 35 appearance without receiving a red card but, before then, he had been dismissed six times since the start of the 2018-19 season.

The striker will now miss the Glasgow side's trip to Hibs next week as a result. Earlier this week, Morelos secured the club's spot in the last-32 of the Europa League after he scored his 14th goal of the European campaign against Young Boys, a record for a Scottish club previously held by Celtic's Henrik Larsson.

That led Gerrard to say:

He's a born goalscorer. He's a human being, some days he won't be able to be the hero.

He's got to be up there as player of the tournament so far. He's scored big goals against top opposition.

Today's goal at Fir Park took his tally for the season to 27 goals across all competitions.
