Key Liverpool star to miss next three matches after Tottenham incident | OneFootball

Liverpool are set to be without Curtis Jones for their next three matches after an appeal to overturn the red card he received at Tottenham Hotspur on Saturday was unsuccessful.

The midfielder was initially shown a yellow card for a challenge on Yves Bissouma in the 26th minute but that was upgraded to a straight red following VAR intervention.

The tackle was widely debated over whether it was a red card offence or not and that prompted the Merseyside club to appeal the decision. However, Liverpool have announced that they have been unsuccessful in their attempts to get the ban overturned and will now be without Jones for the next three Premier League matches.
