Midfielder now available to play in next three league gamesReds appealed against sending off for high tackle at Anfield
The red card shown to Liverpool’s Alexis Mac Allister against Bournemouth last Saturday has been rescinded, meaning he will no longer receive a three-match ban.
The £35m summer signing was sent off on his first league appearance at Anfield by the referee Thomas Bramall for a 58th-minute foul on Ryan Christie. Although his boot was high when he made contact with the Bournemouth player, there appeared to be little force in the challenge and there was surprise that the VAR, Paul Tierney, did not ask Bramall to review the decision on the pitchside monitor.
