(Reuters) - Real Betis will have Brazilian winger Antony available for this weekend's LaLiga match against Real Madrid, after his red card in the game against Getafe was overturned following an appeal, the Spanish FA (RFEF) said on Wednesday.

Antony, who joined Betis on loan for the rest of the season from Manchester United in January, was sent off in added time in his side's 2-1 win on Sunday, shown a straight red card after a late tackle on Juan Iglesias.
