Son obviously didn’t mean for it to turn out the way it did but there’s no doubt he was chasing back with nothing other than the intention of bringing him down.
Go back a few weeks though and look at Chowdry on Salah. Chowdry went after Salah with nothing but intent on bringing him down and the way he flew in on Salah, the outcome could easily have been the same as Gomes.
But people tried to argue that Chowdry had no real intent and that it was purely tactical. Tactical or not, sooner or later someone was going to pick up a potential career ending injury from a cynical foul and now it’s happened.
Things aren’t going good for Son or Spurs this season so when you get caught by someone then you are going to be pissed and want to then even it up but no one would have predicted that happening.
The foul itself from Son clearly isn’t a red card but when you chase back with the sole intention of fouling them and this then happens, what do you expect.
Tough recovery period ahead for Gomes, mentally as much as physically.
