Facts are facts. He was NOT given a red card. The rest is hot air. If everyone is so sure that he did this intentionally then why is there no actions from the FA ? The answer is that no-one will ever know unless Lo Celso writes a book. Why are Spurs fans so keen to accuse him when he was found innocent, and before you reply, the fact exists that the ref did not look at the monitor because he didn't see it as a red and neither did VARman until pressure started on his original, and correct, decision.
I think you're struggling with what a fact is...he wasn't given a red card due to an error by VAR which was later admitted therefore it was a red card offence, you can argue the toss and go off on a tangent as much as you like but he should have been sent off.
Yes the ref didn't see the incident as a red but this is literally what we have VAR for, VAR did it's job correctly in the first instance by looking at him but failed to take appropriate action.
Also the rules say that no action can be taken since the ref/Var already saw the incident, it's their fuck up - he/we got lucky.
Stop being to biased, you wouldn't be saying it if he didn't play for Spurs.
