An MLS independent panel has rescinded the red card handed out to Rafael Ramos during Sunday's match against the Chicago Fire. Ramos will not be fined and will be available for selection for Orlando City's next regular season match on June 17th against the Montreal Impact.
According to MLS rules, red cards can be rescinded if determined to be “a case of serious and obvious error.” An independent three-member panel comprised of one member of the US Soccer Federation, one member of the Canadian Soccer Association and one member of the Professional Referee Organization (PRO) will oversee the review process.
Despite going down a man in the first half, Orlando City fought to a 0-0 draw and earned a point.
