Liverpool WIN their appeal against Alexis Mac Allister's red card shown in win over Bournemouth... with the Argentine midfielder now free to face Newcastle

Liverpool midfielder Alexis Mac Allister has had his red card against Bournemouth overturned.

Mac Allister was shown a straight red by referee Thomas Bramall after catching Cherries midfielder Ryan Christie on the foot during Liverpool's 3-1 Premier League win at Anfield on Saturday.

Paul Tierney was on VAR and did not instruct Bramall to consult the video monitor.

'An independent regulatory commission has removed Alexis Mac Allister's three-match suspension following a claim of wrongful dismissal,' the Football Association said via their FA Spokesperson account on Twitter.

Mac Allister would have missed Liverpool's matches against Newcastle, Aston Villa and Wolves.
