EPL: Tottenham’s appeal against Heung-Min Son’s red card fails
The English FA has upheld the red card received by Heung-Min Son in Sunday’s 2-0 defeat to Chelsea, despite Tottenham’s appeal.
The South Korean was dismissed in the second half of Sunday’s loss at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium when VAR showed him kicking out at Antonio Rudiger in retaliation to being fouled.
The FA’s decision to uphold the red card means the attacking midfielder will miss Spurs’ next three matches against Brighton (Boxing Day), Norwich (Saturday), and Southampton (New Year’s Day).
