Daily Mail  

Tottenham striker Son Heung-min was sent off for violent conduct to compound a miserable day for Tottenham as Chelsea secured a 2-0 win over their bitter rivals. The jet-heeled South Korea talisman was given his marching orders following a lengthy VAR check after appearing to push his studs into marker Antonio Rudiger's ribs when the pair collided in the second half. Heung-min Son was sent off after VAR adjudged that he had kicked out at Antonio Rudiger Rudiger went down clutching his ribs following the kick from Son and the decision went to VAR The Tottenham striker was absolutely stunned after being sent off against Chelsea on Sunday VAR again stoked controversy as a check adjudged the Tottenham livewire to have lashed out at defender Rudiger, who collapsed to the floor and vigorously appealed to referee Anthony Taylor after the tangle. The South Korea star was overcome with emotion after he was shown the red card on Sunday Jose Mourinho looked to console his player as he walked off the pitch and down the tunnel England captain Harry Kane also attempted to comfort Son, whose red card for a foul on Andre Gomes that left the Everton midfielder with a serious long-term injury was overturned following a gruesome incident at Goodison Park on November 3. Mourinho was unable to inspire a riposte as his out-of-sorts side suffered a first defeat in four Chelsea ended a run of two consecutive Premier League defeats by winning a fiery derby 2-0 Depleted Spurs slumped to their first home defeat under the Portuguese, beaten by Willian's eye-catching 12th-minute strike and confident penalty beyond goalkeeper Paulo Gazzaniga on the stroke of half-time.
