Kelman appeared to be the more hurt of the two, rolling around in agony while Lane lay motionless on the pitch.
After much deliberation and waiting for Kelman to get to his feet, referee James Linnington sent off the 20-year-old.
Linnington waited a few moments before dismissing Lane, who was shown his red before being stretched off the pitch.
Footie fans were quick to comment on the nasty challenge after the footage hit social media, with one saying: “Both players apparently got a red for this?

“First time I’ve ever seen something like this from what I can remember.”
Another said: “Looking at it back I think in fairness to the ref he’s got it right.
“Don’t think there’s any intent to hurt, but both players are out of control and over the ball.”
And another said: “Double red is the right decision.”
One remarked: “He sent them both off and gave a free-kick to Gillingham lol.”
The stalemate at the Priestfield Stadium did little to help either side’s bids to beat the League One drop, with the Gills still a solitary point clear of 21st-placed Cod Army.

JAKE PAUL has revealed his biggest boxing payday and laid out the plan for his next fight. The YouTuber-turned boxer has reaped the financial rewards of his polarising prizefighting career since debuting in 2020.
Jake Paul opened up about his biggest boxing paydayCredit: YouTube @fullsendpodcast
Just a year later, he made £30million over three fights and featured in Forbes’ sporting rich list.
And incredibly, he made that same sum in just one night despite suffering his first ever defeat, at the hands of Tommy Fury in February.
Asked on NELK Boys podcast what his highest purse was, Paul replied: “It’s close to $30million. Tommy Fury (fight.)”
The celebrity boxing duo spent the best part of two years feuding before they finally settled the score in the ring.
READ MORE ON JAKE PAUL
Fury, 24, was twice forced to pull out prior to his win due to a rib injury and US visa issue.
And Paul, 26, believes the dragged out rivalling helped contribute to the box office success with over 800,000 pay-per-views sold.
He said: “I think just the timing of everything in fights like that make the most sense.
“It was like two undefeated, young prospects putting it all on the line. His brother’s the heavyweight champion of the world.

“Family versus family, the beef. There was two fights before it that were supposed to happen that we did all the promotion that he pulled out of.
“So there was all that built-in promo. Tons of legends attended the fight [Cristiano] Ronaldo being there. So it just turned into this massive event.”
Paul snubbed a rematch to instead return with a victory over Nate Diaz, 38, in August with Fury now fighting KSI, 30, on Saturday.
And the American revealed his next bout could come against another professional boxer even if the opposition is less known.
Paul revealed: “I’m looking at some pro boxers.
“Because I want to take this more traditional boxing route of moving up into the rankings, fighting professionals and taking the route to become world champion like a prospect of my calibre.
“So we’re looking at some pro boxers and they’re not going to be big names by any means.”
Asked if that comes with risk, Paul said: “I want to be world champion, though. And there’s risk, for sure.
“But, for me I want to challenge myself, continue to grow in this sport and get to the top of it, from a skill level, 100 per cent that’s my goal.”

That raises the possibility of Dortmund selling elsewhere in January to avoid losing him for free.
There is reported to be interest from both Chelsea and Liverpool.
The Blues are even claimed to have submitted a contract proposal to Moukoko.
However, the 18-year-old is ready to join Barcelona, according to Sport.

Moukoko is out of contract at the end of the season and free to sign a pre-contract agreement with another club in January.
He is alleged to have rejected Dortmund’s offer of a new deal and is prioritising a switch to the Nou Camp.
But Barca have made it clear to him that they will only sign him for free in the summer.
They are unable to bid for him in January, and also won’t be able to match the personal terms offered by Premier League clubs in the summer.

If Dortmund are resigned to losing Moukoko, they would rather part ways with him in January in order to receive a transfer fee.
Although signing a new deal at Dortmund has also not yet been ruled out after Moukoko hit out at claims that he turned down an offer.
Barcelona are claimed to be in advanced negotiations with the teenager, but reportedly need the teenager to compromise on wage demands.
Moukoko’s representatives are allegedly demanding £6.1million-a-year for the striker, which works out at £117,000-a-week.
Barca are not willing to match that figure, which could see another team swoop in January. More
