Man Utd midfielder Fellaini clear to face Liverpool

Manchester United midfielder Marouane Fellaini is clear to face Liverpool this weekend.

The Daily Mail says Fellaini has escaped retrospective action for his thigh-high challenge on West Brom's Claudio Yacob on Saturday.

The match officials, led by referee Jon Moss, saw the tackle during United's 3-0 win and therefore cannot refer it to the video panel.

Had none of the officials seen the incident, then the FA would have had the option of referring it to a three-man panel of former referees, who in turn would review the challenge and decide whether it merited a sending off.
