Tottenham 1-2 Liverpool: Cristiano Romero wouldn't have seen red if referee 'did his job' - Thomas Frank

Liverpool hold on to beat nine-man Spurs

Cristian Romero would not have been sent off in Tottenham's 2-1 Premier League loss to Liverpool if referee John Brooks "did his job" properly, says Spurs manager Thomas Frank.

Tottenham were reduced to 10 men in the first half after a VAR intervention when Xavi Simons was dismissed for a foul on Virgil van Dijk.

However, the hosts fought back and reduced the deficit late on through substitute Richarlison.

Despite being a man down, Tottenham were well on top in stoppage time and chasing an equaliser when their captain Romero received a second yellow card for a petulant kick out at Ibrahima Konate.
