Steven Gerrard reveals that the fine money imposed by Alfredo Morelos on red schoolbags will go to Ranger fans | Football News

Morelos saw the red for the fifth time this season in the defeat of Old Firm

Rangers coach Steven Gerrard confirmed that the club will fine Alfredo Morelos a week after his red card in the 2-1 loss to Celtic, and that the money will go to fans.

Morelos saw red red for the fifth time this season while Celtic had a 13-point lead at the top of the Scottish Premiership at Parkhead.

Odsonne Edouard opened the scoring in the 27th minute before Bobby Madden showed Morelos a red card for nudging Celtic captain Scott Brown.

Gerrard's 10 men dominated Ryan Kent in the 63rd minute and when defender Dedryck Boyata was injured, the numbers were tied, with Neil Lennon having used all three substitutions.

But in the 85th minute, the arrival of James Forrest at 12 yards brought the host closer to his eighth consecutive title.

Once again, questions will be asked about Morelos' temperament, even though he scored 29 goals this season, while he showed him his fifth red card of the season (although the first has been canceled).

When asked about Morelos' latest discipline demonstration, Gerrard said Sky sports"I'm going to take care of it internally, it will be punished, the punishment will be financial.

"The money will go to the fans who came here today, I think it's fair, he left his teammates and the lion cub again.

"I went beyond expectations with Morelos, I can not defend this, he will be fined for a week and I will recommend to the board of directors to pay him to the fans who have come today. # 39; hui ".

"I still love him, and I still think he's a fantastic player, and I'll protect him anyway." But the match hit a line, and he was probably already above the line with me.

"From now on, the indiscipline has to stop, one million percent." I'm going to take a much tougher stance on that. "
