Crawley Town midfielder Jay Williams has had a three-match ban overturned after successfully appealing against a red card he received in Monday's League Two defeat by Grimsby Town.
Williams, 25, was sent off shortly after half-time for kicking the ball at Clarke Odour after initially fouling the Mariners player, with the Reds already trailing 2-0.
Crawley went on to lose the match by the same scoreline, with Williams then due to miss three of the season's remaining four games against Bristol Rovers (away), Shrewsbury Town (home) and Accrington Stanley (away).
But he will now be available for all three matches after a successful appeal of wrongful dismissal, a Football Association spokesperson said.
