Hull City's Oumar Niasse has had his red card has been rescinded by the Football Association following a successful appeal today.
The Senegal striker, on loan from Everton, was dismissed by referee Bobby Madley in the first half of the Tigers' 2-0 win over Watford at the KCOM Stadium on Saturday.
He was sent off for an alleged high foot on M'Baye Niang but replays showed the contact between the two players was minimal - although it was also revealed the collision had gone through Niang's sock.
Hull went on to beat the Hornets despite their man disadvantage, with goals from Lazar Markovic and Sam Clucas enough to give their survival hopes a boost.
