Watch: Game changing moment for Spurs as Romero gets sent off for a wild tackle after a lengthy VAR review

Tottenham have gone from being a goal up and having a goal disallowed to now a man down and Chelsea equalising.

It has been a chaotic first half so far with a lot happening.

Spurs scored inside the 6 minutes and scored again moments later but that was ruled out.

On the other end Sterling had a goal disallowed for handball.

But not long after, Caicedo scored a cracking goal from outside the box.

The VAR however after a lengthy review disallowed it after deeming Jackson was in offside position and obstructing the goal.

But the VAR continued it’s check for a potential red card and penalty during the build of the goal.

Romeo clearly went flying into Enzo and even though he got the ball, his follow through was high on the Argentine’s shins.

The referee was eventually sent to review on the pitch side monitor and decided it was a red card and penalty.

Palmer scored from the spot and although Vicario came close to saving it, it was just beyond his reach.

Watch the dramatic scenes below:
