Man Utd star's red card and three-match ban overturned

  /  autty

Manchester United's Ella Toone has had her red card and three-match ban for violent conduct against Tottenham overturned after a successful appeal.

Toone was shown a straight red in United's 2-1 win at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium for raising her hand to Norweigan international Eveliina Summanen with 10 minutes left.

United manager Marc Skinner accused Summanen of "play acting" at the time when confirming the club would appeal, and defended England forward Toone's "passion" on the pitch.

The decision means Toone will be available for United's next game against Leicester.
