Aberdeen’s Cosgrove loses appeal against Celtic red card
LONDON: Aberdeen striker Sam Cosgrove has lost his appeal against his Celtic Park red card. Cosgrove will now miss the Boxing Day clash against Livingston and Sunday’s trip to face Hearts at Tynecastle.
The 20-goal forward was sent off by referee Euan Anderson for a challenge on Celtic defender Kristoffer Ajer during his side’s 2-1 defeat at Parkhead on Saturday.
A statement on Aberdeen’s website read: “Aberdeen FC tonight (Tuesday) lost their appeal to the SFA against Sam Cosgrove’s red card received on Saturday at Celtic Park, meaning that the striker will now serve an immediate two-match ban. Sam is therefore suspended for the final two fixtures of the year against Livingston at Pittodrie on Boxing Day
and against Hearts at Tynecastle on the 29th of December.”
Dons boss Derek McInnes described it as a “brilliant tackle” after Cosgrove sprinted in and won the ball before clipping Ajer with his trailing leg.
