Brentford captain Christian Norgaard has avoided a three-match ban as the Bees successfully appealed against his red card 0-0 draw against Everton on November 23rd.
The Denmark international was sent off in the 41st minute at Goodison Park after challenging Everton goalkeeper Jordan Pickford while trying to score in the six-yard box.
The Video Assistant Referee (VAR) recommended that field referee Chris Kavanagh review the incident on the pitchside screen.
Norgaard was subsequently shown a red card and would have faced a three-match ban as he was dismissed for serious foul play.
But the Bees have won an unfair dismissal appeal and their captain is now available for Saturday's game when Thomas Frank's side host Leicester City in the Premier League (3pm November 30).
