Champions League - Brown gets three-match ban for 'kick' on Neymar

Celtic captain Scott Brown has received a three-match Champions League ban for his red card against Barcelona.

Brown knew he would automatically miss Celtic's home clash with Ajax on Tuesday but he will now also sit out the return match in Amsterdam and the visit of AC Milan.

A statement from Europe's governing body read: "UEFA's Control and Disciplinary Committee has suspended Celtic FC's Scott Brown for the next three UEFA competition matches for which he would otherwise be eligible following his dismissal in the UEFA Champions League matchday two fixture against FC Barcelona in Glasgow."
