Google has won its challenge against a €1.49bn (£1.26bn) fine from the EU for blocking rival online search advertisers.

The bloc accused Google of abusing its market dominance by restricting third-party rivals from displaying search ads between 2006 and 2016.

While Europe’s second-top court upheld much of the European Commission’s findings, it chose to annul the fine.

It comes a week after the EU’s highest court upheld a 2.42bn euro fine against Google over its shopping service.
