Celtic lose Auston Trusty red card appeal but St Mirren’s Richard King dismissal overturned

Celtic say VAR in Scotland “needs urgently reviewed” after their unsuccessful appeal against the red card shown to Auston Trusty in their Scottish Premiership defeat by Hibernian, with the defender now to serve a three-match ban.

St Mirren were successful in challenging Richard King’s sending off in Saturday’s loss to Motherwell and his ban was overturned.

Trusty, 27, was dismissed with the score 1-1 at Celtic Park following an incident with Hibs’ Jamie McGrath as the pair jostled at a corner. The defending champions lost 2-1.

The defender will be banned for three games, including Sunday’s Old Firm derby at Rangers, before Scottish Premiership games away at Aberdeen and at home to Motherwell.
