The Premier League have played it safe with their backing of referee Anthony Taylor by keeping him involved for the next round of matches - but not for Chelsea's trip to Leeds United.
Taylor was in charge of the 'Battle of the Bridge part two' on Sunday as Chelsea were held to a draw by Tottenham at Stamford Bridge. The Blues were in disbelief that they only emerged from the contest with a point after two controversial decisions went against them.
Harry Kane's late equaliser came after Taylor and VAR official Mike Dean had opted against punishing Cristian Romero for pulling Marc Cucurella's hair in the penalty box. The subsequent corner saw Kane nod home and rescue a point deep into stoppage time, prompting thousands of Chelsea fans to launch a petition against Taylor.
