LONDON (AP) — Bournemouth striker Evanilson had a three-match ban overturned on Wednesday following his red card against Manchester United in the Premier League.
The Brazilian was dismissed in the 70th minute of the 1-1 draw with United at the Vitality Stadium on Sunday following a challenge on Noussair Mazraoui.
The suspension was removed after a successful claim of wrongful dismissal by Bournemouth, with Evanilson appearing to slip before taking out Mazraoui.
Evanilson will now be available to face Arsenal on Saturday, as well as for games against Aston Villa and Manchester City.
“An independent regulatory commission has removed Evanilson’s three-match ban following a successful claim of wrongful dismissal,” read a statement from the Football Association.
