Tottenham’s personnel situation at Bournemouth went from a setback to a crisis as they found themselves down to NINE men with only 48 minutes on the clock.
Forward Heung-min Son was dismissed for a push on Jefferson Lerma just before the break and then Juan Foyth was shown the red card for a wild challenge on Jack Simpson.

Foyth’s challenge left Simpson in a heap
It was perhaps harsh to send Son off but Spurs can have no complaints about referee Craig Pawson giving Foyth his marching orders as the Argentine had his studs up at the Cherries man.
Foyth was pulled back in the build up to the challenge but there’s no justification for tackling that high.
And Spurs lost the game in infuriating circumstances, conceding a stoppage-time Nathan Ake goal to secure a 1-0 win for Bournemouth.
Spurs players rated and slated
Having nine men for a large chunk of the game was tough for Spurs but that hasn’t stopped a number of fans on Twitter from making a mockery of the situation.
One fan even compared Foyth’s sending off to that of former Liverpool star Steven Gerrard after he came on in a Premier League match at home to Manchester United in March 2015.

Gerrard was mocked widely by opposition fans for his red card against United
Gerrard was sent off after 38 seconds for a stamp on Ander Herrera but Foyth wasn’t dismissed quite as quickly.
Below you can see the best tweets from these fans laughing at Foyth’s red card.
