Aurier could have been sent off for Tottenham vs Everton - Clattenburg

Renowned referee Mark Clattenburg suggested Martin Atkinson should have looked at the VAR monitor to determine who deserved to be sent off between Son Heung-min and Serge Aurier in Tottenham Hotspur's Premier League clash with Everton which ended 1-1.

The Lilywhites were leading 1-0 until the talking point of the match happened in the 78th minute when Andre Gomes suffered a horrific leg injury after what appeared to be an initial foul from Son, before Aurier barged into the Portuguese midfielder.

The nature of Gomes' injury left both Son and Aurier devastated, but Atkinson decided to give Son a red card having initially issued a yellow.
