The Columbian was injured by the challenge which appeared to leave a deep wound, but it drew no punishment from referee Kevin Clancy.
Steven Gerrard hinted after the game it would have been interesting to see whether there would have been a punishment if Morelos had been the one making the challenge.
The panel did not reach a unanimous descision that a red card should have been rewarded for the tackle on Saturday. Compliance officer Clare Whyte had until 3pm today to lodge a notice of complaint about the incident.
Morelos could miss Rangers' Europa League tie this week, as the injury list mounts for Steven Gerrard.
Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
