Fir Park striker to serve one-match ban

Motherwell have lost their appeal against striker Michael Higdon's one-match suspension. The 28-year-old was banned for making an apparent gesture when celebrating his goal in Saturday's draw with Dundee United. The Fir Park club contested Higdon's suspension for allegedly breaching rule 200, which covers "offensive, insulting or abusive language and/or gestures". However, the Scottish Football Association on Thursday confirmed the ban would stand. The 28-year-old striker will now miss Saturday's SPL home match against St Johnstone.
