Alfredo Morelos made headlines for the wrong reasons for Ibrox side Glasgow Rangers today.
Speaking to BBC Sport, Willie Miller has criticised Rangers hitman Alfredo Morelos.
Morelos, who has just served a three-match ban after being sent off in a Premiership fixture between Rangers and Aberdeen, was booked early on in this afternoon’s trip to Pittodrie in the Scottish Cup.
Referee Kevin Clancy issued the Colombian marksman with a yellow card on 14 minutes for simulation inside the penalty area.
With Morelos’s disciplinary record, it meant that the fiery Gers forward was walking a tightrope for the rest of the game.
And Miller says the 22-year-old will have frustrated his manager Steven Gerrard.
He told BBC Sport: “That must be so frustrating for Steven Gerrard – it’s clear for anyone to see that Alfredo Morelos has taken a dive.
“He can’t control himself, anything can happen now.”
Derek McInnes’s side did well to negate the threat of Morelos, who had seven goals in his last three games across all competitions prior to today.
Much of the pre-match talk centered around whether Scott McKenna could shackle him, but the Scot certainly appeared to win that personal duel.
