\n As the home side were about to take a corner, the centre-back lashed out at Hibs midfielder Jamie McGrath, who fell to the ground following the contact being made to his arm.\n<\/p>\n
\n After being contacted by Grant Irvine at Clydesdale House to look at the incident, referee Matthew MacDermid conducted an on-field review, which resulted in a red card for the USA international.\n<\/p>\n
\n Now, following their appeal, Trusty’s dismissal has been upheld, with the 27-year-old defender now set to miss Celtic’s next three matches, including this Sunday’s Glasgow Derby vs Rangers.\n<\/p>\n
\n After the game, Celtic interim manager Martin O’Neill reacted to the incident in his post-match press conference. “Well, I’ve just had a word with the referee, and he said that he was going to just have a word with the two players, first of all, then I think VAR intervened and said that it was violent conduct,” he said.\n<\/p>\n
\n “Yeah, I’ve spoken to him (Trusty). At the end of it all, you can’t do this. These are the rules now. It doesn’t matter whether somebody’s holding on to you at all.\n<\/p>\n
\n “In an attempt to break away, you can’t, I think, thrust down in the manner in which he did. So I’ve been told that’s called violent conduct.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"As the home side were about to take a corner, the centre-back lashed out at Hibs midfielder Jamie…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":786647,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":"","_share_on_mastodon":"0"},"categories":[10],"tags":[79,16,15],"class_list":["post-786646","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-sports","tag-sports","tag-uk","tag-united-kingdom"],"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@uk\/116127754140709915","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/786646","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=786646"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/786646\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/786647"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=786646"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=786646"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=786646"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
