Hamilton have succeeded in overturning Jamie Hamilton’s red card against Hearts.

The defender was sent off for denying an obvious goalscoring opportunity when Accies were 2-0 up in the 21st minute of their 2-2 draw on Saturday.

The 17-year-old was ruled to have handled the ball as he challenged Liam Boyce.

But the dismissal has now been overturned on appeal, with the club tweeting: “We can now confirm Jamie Hamilton’s red card at Tynecastle has been rescinded.”
