Cadena COPE report that Nacho's yellow card has been rescinded

The defender will therefore be available for the game against Celta Vigo

Another scandal in La Liga Santander 2016/17. Real Madrid have once again been favoured by the governing bodies. The pressure the club put on the Appeal Committee has paid off. 

The RFEF's Appeal Committee have withdrawn the one-game ban Nacho Fernandez had been given by the Competition Committee after he picked up his fifth booking of the season at the weekend. 

The Appeal Committee, according to Cadena COPE, have accepted Madrid's appeal and rescinded the yellow card referee Undiano Mallenco showed Nacho during Sunday's game between Real Madrid and Sevilla at the Santiago Bernabeu. 

Nacho, therefore, is free to play against Celta Vigo on Wednesday night having already been named in Zinedine Zidane's squad for the game despite the suspension.
