He had no choice.
A Disciplinary Panel will meet in Dublin on Thursday, December 28, to consider the red-card decision against Berghan.
The incident occurred in the fifth minute of the Pro14 Round 11 fixture at Murrayfield.

The one mitigating circumstance you'd offer is that something appears to happen in the ruck between the pair immediately preceding the incident.
