France reduce M'Vila ban

France midfielder Yann M'Vila has had his international ban reduced following a successful appeal.

The 22-year-old was given a 25-month suspension by the French Football Federation in November for breaking a curfew while he was on Under-21 duty.

He will now be available for his country from March 1 2014, making him eligible for the World Cup finals in Brazil.

M'Vila's teammate Wissam Ben Yedder was also successful with his appeal and will be able to play from October 1 of this year.
