London - The red card mistakenly shown to West Bromwich Albion's Gareth McAuley against Manchester City on Saturday has been transferred to his team-mate Craig Dawson, the Football Association announced on Monday.
Dawson committed a last-man foul on Wilfried Bony in the second minute of the game at the Etihad Stadium, which City won 3-0, but referee Neil Swarbrick sent off McAuley, who had been close by.
Swarbrick later admitted that it had been a case of mistaken identity, so the FA has reattributed McAuley's one-game suspension to Dawson, who will miss his side's home match with Queens Park Rangers on April 4.
