Brentford's Norgaard Wins Red Card Appeal

Brentford captain Christian Norgaard successfully appealed against his red card received in a 0-0 draw with Everton, avoiding a three-match suspension. Norgaard was initially sent off in the 41st minute for a tackle on Everton goalkeeper Jordan Pickford after a VAR review suggested serious foul play. The Football Association overturned the decision, allowing Norgaard to play in Brentford's upcoming matches, including their next game against Leicester City. Brentford manager Thomas Frank had protested the sending off, receiving a yellow card. This decision mirrors a previous case where Manchester United's Bruno Fernandes had a similar red card rescinded. Brentford currently stands 11th in the Premier League standings.
