The FA released the following statement:

“Arsenal’s claim of wrongful dismissal in relation to Gabriel has been upheld following an Independent Regulatory Commission hearing.

“The player’s three-match suspension has, therefore, been withdrawn with immediate effect.

“Gabriel was dismissed for violent conduct during the game against Chelsea on Saturday [19 September 2015].

“The player is currently subject to a separate FA charge of improper conduct in relation to Saturday’s game and has until 6pm on Thursday [24 September 2015] to reply.”
