Tottenham defeated Liverpool 2-1 despite having nine men on the field at the end of the game and a goal wrongly ruled out.
Diogo Jota who came in as a substitute was sent off by the referee after allegedly committing two fouls in quick succession.

According to reports from the Sun, she shared the PGMOL statement and the following caption on her Instagram story, “Rigged game.”
She continued by presenting a tape of Jota's first caution, which was given when Spurs star Destiny Udogie was injured following only a slight touch from Jota.
The video was released by a Liverpool fan page with the caption, "Clown Emoji" added by Rute, “This was given as a yellow card.”
