George Boateng has had his four-match ban for being sent off at Tottenham overturned on appeal.

The Middlesbrough captain was red carded after a scuffle broke out between the sides four minutes from the end of Spurs' 2-1 Premiership win on Tuesday night, but successfully pleaded wrongful dismissal and will now be available for Saturday's game against Wigan.

The 31-year-old had been facing a four rather than athree-match ban, because he had already been sent off this season.
