Hakim Ziyech saw a red card overturned by VAR following an utterly bizarre incident in the closing stages of the first half of Tottenham vs Chelsea.
Ziyech brought down Richarlison with a poor challenge before a melee started when the Brazilian reacted by pushing the Chelsea winger. Ziyech initially appeared to avoid any punishment, with referee Stuart Attwell showing yellow cards to Kai Havertz and Emerson Royal for their involvement in the pushing and shoving.
Attwell spoke to his assistant, Darren Cann, on the touchline before making his decisions. But after hearing from VAR Paul Tierney in his earpiece, Attwell showed a straight red card to Ziyech, who had clearly put his hand into the face of Royal - an incident that Attwell appeared to have missed the first time around.
