Ipswich Town midfielder George O'Callaghan has had his red card from Saturday's FA Cup fifth round defeat at Watford rescinded.
The former Cork City player won his appeal after being dismissed by referee Steve Bennett for an alleged stamp on Hornets defender Danny Shittu.
"I always felt it was a harsh decision and obviously we're delighted that the appeal has been successful," Town boss Jim Magilton told the club's official website.
O'Callaghan, who had been facing the prospect of a three-match ban, is now available for the Championship clash against Wolves.
