Antony, on loan from Manchester United, will play for Real Betis in their upcoming match against Real Madrid after the RFEF overturned his red card from Betis' recent match against Getafe. The disciplinary committee reviewed video evidence and determined that Antony had not used excessive force during the incident. Since joining Betis, he has been performing well, scoring two goals in four games, marking an improvement from his time at United. This decision boosts Betis' chances in their LaLiga clash against a strong opponent.
Betis appealed to the RFEF's disciplinary committee, providing video evidence, and arguing that there was a 'material error' in the referee's report.
In a ruling released on Wednesday, the committee found that after reviewing the footage, Antony had 'at no time stopped looking at the ball'.
Antony will therefore be available to play for Betis as they host Real Madrid at the Benito Villamarín Stadium in LaLiga on Saturday.
The Brazil international has scored two goals in four LaLiga appearances for Betis so far, with a significant improvement in the form that saw him struggle at United.
