Tony Watt free to face Celtic after Dundee United star wins red card appeal as SFA overturn decision

Tony Watt will be FREE to face Celtic this weekend after a successful red card appeal.

The Dundee United star was sent off during last weekend's clash with Motherwell after a VAR review from a challenge on Sean Goss. The ex-Hoops kid was facing his former club but his afternoon was ended early after he was interpreted to have been guilty of 'serious foul play'

However, following a fast-trick hearing, his dismissal has now been rescinded and replaced with a caution. It means he will be free to face his old club this coming weekend as United face Ange Postecoglou's men for the first time since their 9-0 Tannadice drubbing. A club statement read: "Dundee United can confirm Tony Watt will be available for Saturday's trip to Celtic Park after a successful appeal of his red card in last Saturday's fixture v Motherwell.
