MORGAN Schneiderlin's three match ban has been reduced.

The midfielder was sent off against MK Dons for violent conduct.

However, the FA's regulatory commission today reviewed that.

The Frenchman was sent off late in the 1-0 Johnstone's Paint Trophy win at stadium:mk for raising his hands against Stephen Gleeson.

Saints appealed, claiming that "the standard punishment is clearly excessive."

The ban was reduced to just one match, which he has now served having missed the weekend's game against Ipswich.
