Arsenal’s Mohamed Elneny has been cleared of any wrongdoing following the decision of referee Andre Marriner to send him off in Saturday’s English Premier League clash against Southampton.
The midfielder was shown a red card for violent conduct after a scuffle between teammate Jack Wilshere and Jack Stephens late in the game, which saw the latter dismissed.
The decision came after Elneny engaged in another bust-up with Cedric Soares. And after their 3-2 win, Arsenal launched an appeal against Marriner’s decision which has now turned out to be successful.
“Mohamed Elneny will be available for Arsenal’s next three games after an Independent Regulatory Commission accepted that he was wrongly dismissed for violent conduct against Southampton on Sunday, April 8, 2018,” read a statement from the FA.
