Morelos is free for top six as SFA rescind dive ban

- By CRAIG FORBES

Alfedo Morelos will be available to feature for Rangers after having a yellow card for simulation rescinded by the Scottish Football Associatio­n.

The striker was shown a yellow card by referee Greg Aitken in the second half of Gers’ 4-0 win over Dundee at the weekend, earning him a one-match ban.

Morelos appealed against the decision on Tuesday after he hit the floor following a challenge by keeper Elliot Parish, and has had the booking rescinded by the SFA.

He will now be available for Graeme Murty’s side in the first of their post-split fixtures against Hearts at Ibrox on Sunday 22 April.
