Stoke City midfielder Rory Delap has won his appeal against the red card that he received on Sunday afternoon.
Delap was handed his marching orders in the 17th minute of Stoke's FA Cup tie with Crawley Town for a challenge on David Hunt.
Manager Tony Pulis voiced his displeasure at the decision after the match, before going on to hint that the club were likely to lodge an appeal against the verdict.
The Football Association received that appeal yesterday afternoon and having reviewed the evidence, the governing body have overturned the three-match suspension.
Delap will now be available to take part in Stoke's Premier League fixture against Swansea City this weekend.
