Liverpool fans are furious after clocking that referee Simon Hooper failed to send off Tottenham's Destiny Udogie off for waving an imaginary card after being fouled by Diogo Jota.<\/p>\n

In fairness, the Reds had plenty to complain about as they let slip their undefeated start to the season in agonising fashion. Spurs took all three points thanks to a 96th minute Joel Matip own goal, but the afternoon was marred in controversy after Liverpool will hammered with two debatable red card decisions and a not-so-debatable VAR gaffe which wrongly-ruled out a Luis Diaz goal.<\/p>\n

On top of all that, Tottenham were lucky not to go down to 10 men themselves after Udogie appeared to fall foul of the new ban on card-gesturing. Since the start of the season, referees have been booking players who ask for their opponents to get carded following a foul, but Udogie's misdemeanour, which happened when he was already on a yellow card, went unpunished.<\/p>\n

Liverpool fans were understandably outraged by it. Especially since Alexis Mac Allister was penalised for waving an imaginary card during his side's opening day draw with Chelsea in August.<\/p>\n

One supporter fumed on X (formerly Twitter): "Alexis Mac Allister does a card gesture against Chelsea after being fouled and gets a yellow card. We were told that the rules have changed this season regarding card gestures by players. Destiny Udogie does the same gesture while being on a yellow card. Jota gets booked."<\/p>\n

"So the rule only applies when Liverpool players do it I see," wrote another. A third added: "Ridiculously inconsistent refereeing. Why is it so hard to just get things like this right?"<\/p>\n

A fourth raged: "Simon Hooper should never be allowed to ref a Liverpool game again. Clearly hates us. How else do you explain him not giving Udogie a second yellow? He didn't want to send him off it's as simple as that."<\/p>\n

To make matter worse, Jota was later sent off after picking up a couple of yellow cards for two separate fouls on Udogie. His dismissal brought Liverpool down to nine men following Curtis Jones' straight red for an ugly studs-up challenge on Yves Bissouma.<\/p>\n

Son Heung-min had broken the deadlock in the first-half, just a few minutes after Luis Diaz's goal was wrongly ruled out for offside, and mistakenly not corrected by a VAR check. Cody Gakpo brought Liverpool level just before the break before Matip's injury-time own goal sealed a dramatic and controversy-laden win for Spurs.<\/p>\n
