Alfredo Morelos suffered a nasty leg gash during his side’s 4-0 win over Dundee United.

The chunky striker replaced the injured Brandon Barker after 23 minutes but in the 53rd minute he was stretchered off after coming off second best in a challenge with Ryan Edwards.

After the match Steven Gerrard revealed that it seemed a straight forward cut but dipped into his huge pot of paranoia to suggest of the incident had been the other way around the card could have been red rather than yellow.

WARNING, COMMENTARY CONTAINS SWEARY WORDS.

Leon Balogun and Ryan Jack also suffered injuries leaving Mister Gerrard with four injury doubts for the midweek Europa League tie away to Lincoln Red Imps.

Morelos is likely to stay behind for treatment on his gash with an eye on Sunday’s away match against Hibs.

So far in 2020 the Columbian starlet has scored in one SPFL match, Patryk Klimala has scored the same number of goals with Albian Ajeti one ahead of Morelos for the calendar year.
