Stoke City win Geoff Cameron appeal

Stoke City have been successful in their appeal against the red card that Geoff Cameron received during their 2-1 defeat away at West Bromwich Albion on Saturday afternoon.

The American was handed his marching orders by referee Lee Mason during the closing stages at The Hawthorns following a clash with West Brom midfielder Claudio Yacob.

However, the Potters announced earlier today that they had lodged a challenge against Mason's decision, which has now been overturned by the Football Association.

"Geoff Cameron has had his three-match suspension withdrawn with immediate effect after his wrongful dismissal claim was successful," read a statement on the governing body's official website.

As a result, the 30-year-old will be available for tomorrow night's League Cup semi-final encounter against Liverpool.
