Even Everton manager David Moyes considered his captain James Tarkowski "lucky" to stay on the pitch.
Explaining the decision, the Premier League Match Centre said on X: "The referee's call of yellow card for a reckless foul by Tarkowski was checked by the VAR, with contact on the follow through after Tarkowski had played the ball deemed to be reckless."
The key word here is "reckless", which according to the laws of the game merits a yellow card rather than a red.
