No no, nonsense, you clearly haven’t seen what actually happened, the player then went into another player, and that player then caused the injury.

It’s a high tempo sport where players are going to show a bit of aggression. It’s not some horrendous challenge where he’s tried to end a career, just a bit rash, a yellow card under usual circumstances.
Is a yellow card challenge really worth the abuse? You see those tackles every week, it wasn’t even the tackle that caused the injury. And again it’s pretty clear Son was badly shaken up by it so I really dont think the OTT abuse is necessary.
Clearly watching a different match, that had all the intent, Son was fouled a few moments before, went in reckless, which resulted in a horrific injury. Should get a lengthy ban to make an example, this kind of retaliation is not tolerated in football.
It's Son and Tottenham who gives a shit
Think it’s only a matter of time until footballers all wear head protection. With the risk of serious injury and long term effects of heading a football it probably makes sense. More research needed of course.
Feel so bad for Son who clearly thinks he's to blame, and worse for Gomes who won't see a football pitch for a long, long time.
Horrific incident. Not arsed Son got a red, or if it gets rescinded. It pales in comparison and its weird that its the main area of focus on this page.

A very horrible freak injury. reminds me of Luke shaws.
son is going to be effected for a long time it seems, he took that hard the poor guy.

It was dangerous in fairness. You're not allowed tackle like that in rugby because of the risk of concussions.
12 minutes of added time.
Everton are broken.

Oh it’s ridiculous, more for united living in their black and white world where something can’t simply be due to an unfortunate set of circumstances and someone must either be EXONERATED or CONDEMNED.
Holgate is awful where did they find him?
Only 12 minutes. You have to laugh really. They were stopped for at least 10 for the VAR shout.
The feck are you talking about? There was no retaliation
He was careless and it was a shit tackle. There's a bloke in an ambulance on his way to hospital with his foot hanging off, that's the "poor guy".
I don't think Son deserves any abuse but when you go around fouling people like that, shit can happen.
This doesn't make sense. Not all injuries are the result of malice.
He sounds like a bargain toothpaste brand.
Aye, it was a poor tackle but if the injury hadn't happened, it would've been a yellow i think
Oh boy, the first impact makes it even worse. Looks like multiple breaks
Wishing speedy recovery for Gomes.
Reckless from Son to retaliate like that. But the injury is a freak one. Sure it will be hard to forgive himself for it even if it wasnt fully the tackle that broke the ankle

Fully agree. Should have already had a yellow for diving like a fecking bell end earlier in the second half. Let's hope they give him a 5 match ban.
Nah, there was nothing wrong with that tackle at all. You see fouls like that up and down the country every day.
it just so happens he stumbles and then aurier comes in with an even stronger challenge while he’s imbalanced.
his ankle got stuck in the ground as he went over. Sons part alone didn’t break his ankle at all.
After watching the replay on youtube it's actually hard to see, did he break it after Son's tackle, or when Aurier charged into him like a goon when he was already falling down.
Oh for sure.
As it happens I saw it and Son fouls him which resulted in his leg break had he not fouled him he wouldn't have a broken leg, it's very simple.
What? His whole leg is turned that way, it’s completely normal at that point
Oh boy, the first impact makes it even worse. Looks like multiple breaks
"Nothing wrong"? It was a shit tackle. You do see plenty of shit tackles every week but they're still shit tackles.
Dickhead tackle to be honest
1-1 !!!
1-1
1-1
OHHHHHH
Spurs away win drought goes on.
Justice for Gomes. Feck Son
Not really, normal, run of the mill tackle
It looks like Aurier. His challenge fecking awful now I see it again, so far from the ball.
excellent
Imagine if we had a lb like Digne
Knew it.
Finally I found a purpose for Jesse Lingard. Get on the pitch, fake an elbow and concussion from van Dijk -> Red card -> success.
