Lionel Messi's yellow card for wasting time rescinded upon appeal

The Spanish football federation has rescinded the yellow card
Lionel Messi received on Sunday at Valencia.
Messi was booked after a thrown object appeared to hit him in
the head while Barcelona celebrated Sergio Busquets' goal.
Referee David Fernandez Borbalan showed him a yellow
card after deciding that he had wasted time. The official later
wrote in his match report that the Argentina captain had
"delayed his return to the field of play after the scoring of the
goal with the aim of wasting time."
The yellow card was initially upheld a day earlier by La
Liga's competition committee, but Barcelona asked a higher
appeals committee to take another look.
Upon further review, the committee was unable to detect
"deliberate time-wasting" on Messi's part but only "a normal
reaction from someone who had suffered an aggression by a
spectator," according to a statement on the RFEF website.
