Richard Foster will miss St Johnstone's games against Rangers and Hearts later this month after receiving a two-match ban from the SFA.

Sofien Moussa scored the winner for Dundee from the penalty spot after Foster was adjudged to have fouled Ajay Leitch-Smith.

Foster incurred the wrath of the authorities after reportedly kicking the door of referee Alan Muir's changing room in frustration.
