Ronaldo Cleared To Face Eibar as Ban Is Overturned

Cristiano Ronaldo has been cleared by the LFP to face Eibar on Saturday after his one match ban was overturned and yellow card he received against Rayo Vallencano cancelled by a committee set up by the league board.

Ronaldo was booked for simulation after he went down in the box in the clash against Rayo Vallencano but replays show that the Portugal international was indeed fouled and Real Madrid appealed the decision as the yellow card meant that the former Manchester United ace was going to miss the clash between Real Madrid and Eibar due to suspension. The league however received the appeal and cancelled the yellow card thereby removing the one match ban and delivering some bad news to the Eibar defense: They would have to contain the best footballer in the world when they clash with Real Madrid tomorrow.

Ronaldo is currently the leading goalscorer in the la liga and in Europe with 37 goals in 27 matches to his credit.
