AC Milan goalkeeper Dida's two-match Champions League ban for feigning injury against Celtic was reduced to one game.
A statement on Milan's Web site said the club's appeal had been partially upheld and the player would only miss Wednesday's home fixture with Shakhtar Donetsk.
Dida fell dramatically to the ground after chasing a Celtic fan, who had run on to the pitch to celebrate his team's late winner in a 2-1 victory on Oct. 3 and appeared to make light contact as he tipped the Brazilian on the chest.
UEFA's disciplinary committee banned Dida for two games and fined Celtic 60,000 Swiss francs, half of which will be suspended for two years, for failing to keep the fan off the pitch.
Milan immediately indicated they would appeal, saying the ban was excessive and the real villain was the fan.
UEFA's appeals commission decided on Monday to halve Dida's suspension based on a paragraph in the regulations of European soccer's governing body stating 'players, officials and members shall conduct themselves according to the principles of loyalty, integrity and sportsmanship'.
The supporter, who identified himself to police the day after the match, was given a lifetime ban by the Scottish champions.
