Roma midfielder Kevin Strootman’s two-match ban for simulation during his team’s 2-0 win over rivals Lazio on Sunday has been overturned, the Italian League said yesterday.
The sporting court of appeal upheld Roma’s challenge, saying the disciplinary panel could not have determined the cause-effect relationship of the simulation.
Strootman, has who made 13 league appearances for Roma this season, will be available for matches against Milan and Juventus.
