Alfredo Morelos' Rangers antics hammered as Alan Brazil brands striker 'a clown' in on-air Celtic rant

Alan Brazil has branded Alfredo Morelos "a clown" after the Rangers star's red card against Celtic.

The Colombian was shown a second yellow for diving in the final seconds of his side's 2-1 Parkhead win over their rivals on Sunday.

It's the seventh dismissal of Morelos' Rangers career and he's now been sent off on his last two starts.

The 23-year-old could also face retrospective action after appearing to aim a throat-slitting gesture towards the home crowd.

TalkSPORT pundit Brazil, a Celtic fan, admitted Steven Gerrard's side deserved their victory but backed his team to recover and secure a ninth Premiership title on the spin.

Speaking on his Sports Breakfast show, Brazil said: "I'm not going to make excuses, they deserved it and, to be honest, they were the better team in the cup final.

" Celtic had two cleared off the line and missed a penalty. But, for me, for a good hour Rangers were better.

"Celtic have got to stop the midfield and they just cannot defend set-pieces. They have got two big centre-halves. Ajer, he doesn't head the ball.

"Morelos again. He's a clown. I don't know what's wrong with the guy.

I think Celtic will still win the title. They are still two points clear, by the way.

" Rangers will slip-up. I am going to get slaughtered by Celtic fans, but we need Rangers back, we need a fight right until the end."
