Following a successful appeal to the Football Association, the red card Max Power was awarded in Sunderland AFC’s game against Walsall has been rescinded.
As a result, the midfielder will not serve a suspension and will be available for selection when the Black Cats take on Barnsley at the Stadium of Light on Tuesday evening.
Speaking about the decision, Jack Ross said: “First and foremost I’m pleased for Max.
“I was fairly passionate in my opinion on it post-match, and nothing’s changed in that respect, so I’m grateful that those who have looked at the appeal at the FA have seen it in the same light.
“Max is a strong character and he’s entirely determined to be successful here, but I imagine this will just give him that extra little bit of motivation to prove to people why he’s at this club.”
