Anthony's appeal was successful! La Liga officially announced the revocation of the red card + can play Real Madrid and scored 5 goals in 6 games after leaving Manchester United

On the evening of February 26, Beijing time, La Liga powerhouse Real Betis Club issued an official announcement that the Disciplinary Committee of the Spanish Football Association revoked the red card for Brazilian winger Antony, and his one-game ban also expired, so he could play in the game against Real Madrid.

In the last round of La Liga Betis against Getafe, Antony had another outstanding performance. He provided assists for his teammates. However, in stoppage time, Antony was sent off for a back tackle and was about to miss Real Madrid due to suspension.

However, Betis submitted a document after the game to disagree, and after watching the footage, the committee found that Anthony had been watching the ball controlled by the opposing player and trying to intercept the ball that the opposing player had just kicked with his left foot. From the player's movements, it cannot be inferred that he had any intention of making physical contact with the Getafe player, instead attempting to make contact with the ball, although ultimately unsuccessful.


In the end, La Liga officially announced that Antony's red card was revoked, and after the appeal was successful, the Brazilian will also regain the opportunity to face Real Madrid directly in the next round. Since joining Betis on loan from Manchester United in the winter window, Antony has been impressive, contributing three goals and two assists in six appearances. With 5 goals alone, he has become Betis' offensive "thigh".

Four days later, at 1:30 a.m. on March 2, Betis will host Real Madrid. Whether he can still perform well in the showdown with the world's top giants will be a key battle to test whether Anthony is truly "resurrected".
