Arsenal striker Eduardo has won his appeal against a two match ban for diving in the Champions League qualifier against Celtic.
The Croatia star won a penalty for the Gunners in the second leg of their tie at the Emirates on August 26, but was later punished for "deceiving the referee".
The decision sparked a furious reaction from Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger after the chief executive of the Scottish FA complained to UEFA, whose general secretary is Scottish.
But a UEFA statement said on Monday: "Following examination of all the evidence, notably the declarations of both the referee and the referees' assessor, as well as the various video footage, it was not established to the panel's satisfaction that the referee had been deceived in taking his decision on the penalty."
