FA overturns Upton Park red cards

Everton and West Ham have both succeeded in their appeals against red cards given to Darron Gibson and Carlton Cole in last Saturday’s Barclays Premier League match at Upton Park.

Hammers striker Cole was sent off by referee Anthony Taylor for a high challenge on Leighton Baines and Toffees midfielder Gibson followed suit for a similar challenge on Mark Noble during Everton’s 2-1 win.
