Manchester United captain Bruno Fernandes has avoided a ban after the club successfully appealed against his red card against Tottenham on Sunday.
The 30-year-old was shown a straight red card for a foul on Spurs midfielder James Maddison and would have faced a three-match suspension for serious foul play.
However, United successfully argued that the decision to send him off was wrong and Fernandes will now be available for his side's forthcoming Premier League fixtures against Aston Villa, Brentford and West Ham.
Erik ten Hag's side were 1-0 down when Fernandes was sent off and proceeded to lose 3-0 at Old Trafford, their third league defeat of the campaign.
