Scott Brown faces a sweat on potential retrospective punishment for the Celtic captain’s alleged elbow offence during Sunday’s Pittodrie thriller.
The Hoops midfielder, on as a 70th minute substitute, was caught on camera appearing to catch Scott Wright off the ball as he tried to block the Aberdeen man at a throw-in in the latter stages of the 3-3 draw.
Wright was seen holding his mouth after the
incident but ref Willie Collum took no action and, as it would be a fast track case, SFA compliance officer Clare Whyte has until 3pm on Tuesday to decide if he will be cited.
Celtic were furious the last time a player was punished retrospectively with Ryan Christie handed a two-match ban for grabbing Alfredo Morelos in an Old Firm clash last December.
The Parkhead club hit out at that decision, declaring they were "absolutely astonished" that their player had been cited by the compliance officer.
That came after Celtic chiefs called for a meeting with the SFA 12 months earlier after Morelos escaped retrospective action for incidents during the corresponding fixture.
