Celtic star Scott Brown’s celebration against Rangers has got him into trouble.

Celtic captain Scott Brown reacts during The Ladbrokes Scottish Premier League match between Celtic and Rangers at Celtic Park on March 31, 2019 in Glasgow, Scotland.

Celtic midfielder Scott Brown celebrated the win for his side in front of the Rangers fans at Celtic Park in the Old Firm derby last weekend, and he has been charged for his action.

As reported on BBC Sport, the Scottish FA has cited the former Scotland international midfielder for “not acting in the best interests of football”.

The 33-year-old midfielder could be hit with a two-match ban by the SFA, according to The Express.

Former Celtic striker Sutton – who now works as a pundit for BBC Sport and BT Sport – has mocked the decision to charge Brown on Twitter by suggesting that Jordan Henderson should be cited for his goal celebration for Liverpool against Southampton in the Premier League on Friday evening.

The 28-year-old England international midfielder scored the third goal for Liverpool in their 3-1 win at St. Mary’s Stadium.

After scoring the goal in the 86th minute, the former Sunderland midfielder cupped his ears in celebration.
