Was Son's challenge that bad?

And here I thought with how Spurs were doing we’d be spared of this nonsense again.
Son is one of the most likeable players out there. Horrible.
I mean, absolutely shockingly awful result.
But that's a yellow card tackle.
Yea the way he went down into Aurier was brutal.I went back and watch a replay because the broadcast wasn't showing it. It wasn't a stonwall red on it's own, but it was a hack at the back leg.
It wasn't the challenge itself that broke the ankle, but was how he landed after it.
I have zero issues with a yellow being upgraded to a red when the result of a bad challenge is a guys career potentially ending.
agreed. Inadvertent or not, if you destroy a player, you have to go.
how does it not lol?
12 minutes. never seen it this much before tbh.Probably gonna be 10 or 11 minutes of stoppage time between the injury and VAR stoppages.
How does that make any sense?
Agreed, it was a terrible tackle that could have caused an injury. He took that risk when he made it, and that the injury wasn't directly from the tackle doesn't matter, it was still reckless and resulted in an injury.There's a clear difference between a routine challenge that happens to have brutal results and a kick at a guys back leg that wasn't remotely close to the ball that ends up destroying his ankle.
If you're putting in a cynical or reckless challenge, you bear a certain responsibility for the results.

Yes it did, that was brutal.Just seen the replay and Gomes foot appears to be 90 degrees out of place
That's a terrible way to ref but I understand that with emotions involved it is the way that it goes.
If Aurier isn't there and Gomez just falls and that is called a yellow card it seems stupid to give a red card just because Aurier happened to be there for Gomez to hit when Son made the exact same play in each case. Unless you think that he made the play hoping that Gomez would hit Aurier which I think we all agree was not what happened.
