Standard Liege midfielder Axel Witsel has had his
suspension for the tackle which broke Anderlecht defender Marcin
Wasilewski's leg reduced.
The 20-year-old was initially banned until November 23 for
the reckless tackle last weekend in which Wasilewski's lower leg
snapped in half.
That ban took in 11 games, but the total has now been reduced to
eight after the appeal committee decided the foul could not be
definitively ruled intentional.
Witsel has apologised for the tackle, claiming it was not
intentional.
