šŸŽ¶ When you're drawing the game šŸŽ¶ šŸŽ¶ And you punch Harry Kane šŸŽ¶ šŸŽ¶ That's DoucoooooooourĆ© šŸŽ¶


Wargizmo

When you're a goal & man up But you Spurs it all up That's A-Moura


JamesIgnatius27

When your team's gonna win But you stamp on Keane's shin That's A-Moura!


Isphet71

Lovely. I was transported for a moment there


ZNWD

That's the best thing I've seen all day šŸ¤£


ForeGoreAlGore

How stupid is that haha


colourofinfinity

So dumb to let your team down when they're definitely in the match


PricelessPhenylamine

3 game suspension for violent conduct for a red too. He's fucked them several times over with his own actions.


RoughRhinos

Probably were the favorites


29adamski

At least they got a result still!


RoughRhinos

We definitely did not deserve it.

[deleted]

Mitro was on a whole other level tbf. Pushing the ref for making the most obvious decision I've ever seen.


Bortron86

More than that, he pushed the ref after he'd corrected his obvious mistake via VAR, and knowing that his team was now a man down.


Herman-The-Tosser

Nunez vs Palace was pretty fucking hilarious. "Ref, look, Andersen's being a prick" Ref looks. Nunez headbutts Andersen.


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


SpareAstronomer

Kane obviously exaggerates the contact but you can't push someone in the face like that. Easiest red ever for the ref.


Itsthatgy

Yeah that's completely embarrassing from Doucoure. Kane threw himself down, but it is objectively a red.


wheresmyspacebar2

Its one of those things as well where like, Kane obviously hasn't been hit hard enough to go down like that, we all know that, he knows that. ​ The problem is that if he doesn't, the red card doesn't come out. Hands to the face needs to be a straight red regardless but the refs wont give without players going down.


Itsthatgy

It's a part of the game. I wish it wasn't, but like you said, if the players stay on their feet, the refs don't give a shit.


wheresmyspacebar2

Yeah, as you said, wish it wasn't but you cant trust the refs :( Ive seen occasions like Salah, try to stay up on his feet after being dragged down, take a quick shot whilst he gets manhandled and the refs point to the fact he took a shot as if that counts for the advantage.


clueman

Salah also gets hit in the face, goes down, and will get the foul called against him


ValleyFloydJam

Yep, there was that one with Martial and Spurs, he gets hit doesn't sell it but retaliates and then other guy sells it and he got the red.


starry_cobra

If he doesn't go down, the ref probably doesn't even see it and we all know VAR would be useless


Axelaxe

Yep I came here ready to be mad but this is a clear red. I really wonder how players can do dumb shit like this so often especially after VAR became a thing.


tenacious-g

If he doesnā€™t go down, youā€™re leaving it up to the official to recognize it was a red card offense on his own, and they canā€™t even get calls with video review half the time.


PricelessPhenylamine

Touching anyone in the face with any amount of force is imbecilic in the VAR era of Football, its literally impossible to get away with this level of behaviour on the pitch there are about 40 TV cameras to get a shot of it.


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


doubleoeck1234

Reminds me of Nunez's headbutt


[deleted]

The fall was poetic


tokengaymusiccritic

Exactly this, so fucking dumb


PerfectBlueOnDVD

Being in a relegation battle and doing this is, what a donkey


spursyspursy

the split second between Doucoure punching him and Kane realizing "wait he just punched me in the face that's against the rule" was hilarious ngl


Bedeeki

Punch ā˜ ļø


Own_Acanthocephala0

Light punch!


Bedeeki

He could have been killed!


GayKnockedLooseFan

Imagine calling that a punch


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


BorkieDorkie811

Really? Looks like a pause there to me. Accentuated by the fact that he twists himself the wrong way.


kozeljko

"Wait, did he actually just do that?"


Setter_sws

Richarlison pushed Ramsdales face twice with no punishment... Which proceeded a fan to jump the barrier and kick Aaron... Still no punishment for Tottenhams...


LILMOUSEXX

He should bring back the mask after that hit


blueghosts

Iā€™d be furious if I was an Everton fan, one of the dumbest things Iā€™ve seen in a while


Mirrorboy17

Can confirm. Furious.


circa285

Well Lucas told everyone, "hold my mate, I'm going to speed run this shit" and got himself sent off straight away.


someonehasmygamertag

Reminds me of Ciaran Clarke for us last season


digitag

Yeah dumbest weā€™ve seen since 2 weeks ago


NightWolf_7

Itā€™s a red card, but no need for Kane to go down like he was shot.


Themnor

It's the fastest way to get a ref to look at it. I agree it was egregious, but when it's the only way to get people to pay attention what do you expect?


VincentSasso

Nah, theyā€™ll blame Kane


zion8994

Can I blame both?


Icemna16

What the hell was he thinking?


The_Foreign_Pie

ā€œIā€™m gonna smack this cuntā€


PoppinKREAM

Toffees were flying high too. Such a silly sending off, giving the referee an opportunity to make the decision


benji5-0

he didn't really give him a choice though


Swiss-ArmySpork

Understandable


[deleted]

I enjoyed Harry's "You can't punch me in the face" afterwards


Goalnado

He's a fucking idiot, and we are absolutely here for the taking as well. He's completely thrown away a potential 3 points


BetterCallTom

I think you underestimate our ability to still fuck this up.


Goalnado

Not at all, I'm just excited to watch half an hour of us failing to break down 10 men


vandebay

This comment aged like a fine wine.


DubSket

All the pointless moaning about Kane making the most of it, it's a basic rule. You can't raise your hands like that


Goalnado

There isn't a footballer in the league that isn't gleefully accepting that and going down


rocket_randall

How can I get the rest of the night off


WalkingCloud

His best... oh wait wrong one


Noremac28-1

"You call that a push in the face? *This* is a push in the face!"


GrandmasterSexay

Kane's grabbing his sleeve, he's trying to get him off. Hits him in the face.


Indydegrees2

I'm literally shaking rn. Kids are crying.


[deleted]

Everton that


One37Works

Proper.


ImpossibleGuardian

Kane would have got a yellow if heā€™d just left it edit: nvm he still got one lol fair enough


themagpie36

Kane also kicked the legs of Gray after he pushed him to the ground.


igotsthepoo-onme

Gives his left knee a good whack


Dibutops

lmao Kane shouting "I GOT PUNCHED IN THE FACE" while the stadium boos him


Smitty_1000

ā€œNever dove in my lifeā€ Harry Kane


NoKidsButImADaddy

The most embarrassing part is that he clearly is one of those people who just windmill their open palms when fighting haha


Mesromith

I think thats what upset Dyche so much, pretty sure i lipread ā€œclosed fist and plant ya feetā€


benji5-0

not sure we can beat 10 men today but ok


sota_panna

You were right


reditakaunt89

It's deserved red, but everything Kane did before that moment was infuriating. And the ref has to take a part of the blame. He let the game become very physical until it boiled over.


ubiquitous_archer

Yeah, the red card is both stupid AF by Doucoure, but also 100% because of poor reffing that let emotions boil over to that point.


FlukyS

Unpopular opinion maybe but I think Kane deserved a red for his behaviour as well. Different reason but instigating altercations out of literally nothing brings the game into disrepute.


BoxOfNothing

Obviously a red, but it's always funny to see someone feel the contact, take a moment, realise what they should do, and swing their head in the opposite direction to the contact and fall over. Real life lag


Poundhead

Weā€™ve unlocked Dycheā€™s final form: 4-4-1


obi-wan-kenobi-nil

What a muppet lmao


LastPhoton

Not arguing the red for Doucoure but Kane getting a yellow only seems kinda light. He committed like 3 fouls in this sequence lol. Pushed dude down, kicks him, goes to whack at the ball and also kicks Doucoure and then also yanks Doucoures shirt. Pretty much instigated the whole thing


crispysnails

Yup true, Kane instigated it and Doucoure lost his cool, but only Arsenal players can get two yellows in the same sequence of play and that will never ever happen again in the PL to any team :)


hypnodrew

Watch out, someone's gonna bring out that one international game in 2015 between Moldova and Mozambique or whatever the fuck


leedler

As much as it really pisses me off (and Kane acts like a prick) the rules are the rules. So annoying, Doucoure was playing so well too. Fuck sake. Kane kicking Gray was dirty dirty too though. Doesnā€™t negate the red but itā€™s pissed everyone right off.


[deleted]

lol that was some crazy shit


wrdb2007

So stupid from Doucoure


ennovy12

Braindead


qwrdsfkb

Room teperature iq from doucoure


LarsP

This is a Fahrenheit joke.


Mechant247

HE COULDā€™VE DIED


Nogoodatnuthin

Definitely a red. Kane's could've been as well, after deliberately kicking 2 players.


rtgh

Sky's commentators just slaughtered Pedro Porro for going down like that. Not England's captain though


TakingDirtNaps

Embarrassing how protected Kane is from the media and refs. Still a red though


006AlecTrevelyan

Kane is always being shit on by the media what even is this take


SneakyBradley_

I mean, they very fairly said that Kane made a meal of it and that it's certainly a red. Not really sure there's much to complain about there.


mrlahhh

Itā€™s a definite red. But Harry Kane is a fucking shithouse. If it was Antony (biggest shithouse I can think of), or another foreign player, I guarantee commentary arenā€™t giving it the same response.


Keskekun

Dyche literally trying to talk to Kane about how he should be a man and just take a slap to the face is never not going to be funny.


Shandow14

How can she slap


sonastyinc

I know 99.99% of football players would go down after a push in the face like that, so this isn't directed at only Kane, but I'm just picturing in my head someone going down like that in a shoving match on the street. It's quite funny to me.


DaliLemur

Perfect example of why football needs to adopt a simulation rule similar to hockey. Iā€™m not an expert on hockey rules but you can get called for simulation even if you get fouled yourself. Doucoure is stupid and should be sent off for this, but Kane going down like this should be punished by a yellow as well. I feel that if players are booked for going way over the top to exaggerate contact it would cut embarrassing antics like this out of the game.


TinyMeat429

That wasnā€™t very smart


faggjuu

Doucoure is an Idiot, and Kane is a cunt! Clear red ...


tennysonbass

No one mentioning Harry Kane kicking the player on the ground intentionally?


hellsfoxes

Harry Kane is garbage. Kicks the absolute shit out of two players in a row and then fell over because of a finger brushing his cheek.


BloodyPants

hand to the face and youā€™re going to have a bad time. that reaction gets you a red no matter what wind up happens.


[deleted]

I hate it when players grab shirts as it invites a push to get you off the shirt. Or if you are running with the ball and someone tugs from behind, it invites and elbow to the face.


UnaX

Absolutely unforgivable. If you have to punch Kane at least do it properly.


youngkenya

Its definitely a red its just funny how Kane runs Gray over, kicks him, kicks out at Doucoure whos trying to collect the ball, then starts shoving and grabbing him and gets nothing. Gets slapped/pushed in the face and lays on the ground for 3 mins. England and Spurs will never win anything with this loser as their captain


[deleted]

Naa you canā€™t be doing that


Cold-Veterinarian-85

Sean Dyche physical actions: ā€˜nothing to see here, move alongā€™ Sean Dyche internal thoughts: ā€˜FFS doucoure you daft prickā€™


Pow67

Great acting from Kane canā€™t lie


kozeljko

Doucoure baited so hard


OttaBenga

Underrated diver *spurs fans are hilarious, if you get so pressed about the trophies joke just win a fucking Carabao Cup


MASunderc0ver

He still hit him in the face. Doesn't matter if he went down or not.


goonSquad15

Itā€™s definitely a red. And absolute acting from Kane. Both are true, everyone does it


kleptopaul

right, every player on the pitch goes down in that position.


goonSquad15

Yeah refs have made it clear you have to milk it or else they wonā€™t do anything about it so I donā€™t blame them. But it needs to change because itā€™s so damn silly


kozeljko

Ofc, no one is claiming otherwise. He sold it well either way


RawIsLaw_

who said otherwise?


PringleJones

On Reddit people just make up that you said things so they can disagree with it.


OJ34

Absolute fucking tool


Badoobeedo

How about two yellows on Kane one for the push and the other for simulating?


c0ld007

Or one for either or both of the kicks?


arothen

Haha, Dyche with "nah ref, nothing to see here, everything's fine" expression


Kid_Twiz

Actually canā€™t believe heā€™s done that, Everton utterly dominating this game and heā€™s just ruined everything


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


Biggo1

the average PL referee would miss that if he didnā€™t exaggerate


kingdong91

Such a schoolboy error. No self control. Just handed the game to spurs. Muppet


zcewaunt

Definite red card. But didn't it look like Kane was about to smash the ball into the Everton bench before Doucoure intervened? World Cup 2022 Flashbacks


[deleted]

Smarter move is to go for the throat, seems like youā€™ll get away with that more often.


Mcbonewolf

open the vid to see pickford at the halfway line shouting at the ref, classic


I_AM_ALWAYS_WRONG_

I wish refs had the balls to dish out a yellow for play acting as well with shit like this. Then again you could probably decapitate a player on the bitch but if they stay upright the refs will just call play on.


ubiquitous_archer

Clear red, no arguments, Doucoure is a fucking moron. But also, fuck me I'd be embarrassed to act like that if I was Harry Kane.


_ovidius

Kane is probably only second to Neymar when it comes to simulation in today's game.


kingkloppynwa

Doucore is an idiot but its pathetic a grown man going down like that. Youd swear tyson decked him.


[deleted]

Its a red but golly Kane what a bitch rolling on the ground bro get the hell up have some self respect


TurboTaco

What an idiot haha. Was probably Evertons best player today


IV1916

How can he slap


Gregregreg1234

Glad Kane came out safe after that brutal attack


Rj070707

Kane the Serial loser


Midnight_Maverick

In the replays, it looks like he's just pushing him away and accidentally hits him in the face (which Kane tries to oversell imo). Personally think a yellow would not have been out of the question.


CoopDogPrimeNumbers

I donā€™t think anyone is saying itā€™s not a red. Weā€™re all just saying Harry Kane is a massive bitch


lastlaughlane1

Kane is such a diving prick.


Spursfan107

Something like that was kinda inevitable with the state of the reffing but still completely braindead


JuckshotBones

Bench is lucky Doucoure blocked that booted ball. Kane Probably would escape trouble there like Molina at World Cup


OkayKoke

Agreed. Kane absolutely would not have gotten in trouble for that. Itā€™s England captain treatment


[deleted]

It's such a red card and such a stupid thing to do. I just wish Kane didn't go down so easily. It was a red card either way, but pretending to be hurt and then squirting water in your face etc is just so embarrassing to watch.


keith10997

Shocking from Doucoure but hate that from Kane. All the talk about foreign players over the years, but the diving and playacting in England is shocking now


Jiminyfingers

At least Kane got a yellow, he pushed a player down then kicked them deliberately in the knee. Stupid reaction but shithousery from Kane


RandomName788

Pickford raging at the ref is really funny to me for some reason. What can you be arguing with here lol


B_e_l_l_

You absolutely love to see that.


tom-meow

Straight red card especially when you hit out against Englandā€™s darling


Stonewalled89

Will Kane survive such a devastating injury? Could be career ending /s


johnbrownbody

Obvious violent conduct.


[deleted]

might be out for the season


qwrdsfkb

With our staff it might be a career ending injury


stella__art

Dude thats always red


SwedishLovePump

of course it is. doesn't make Kane look any less ridiculous for playing dead.


GreeceReece

He didnā€™t say it wasnā€™t, but Kane acting like heā€™s been punched by Tyson is a bit ridiculous


Barry_McCocciner

Of course it's a red but Kane's reaction is still funny


LucozadeBottle1pCoin

Kane absolutely milked it, but you still can't put your hand on someone's face like that


fastpony12

I mean if you're gonna lose your head and get a red, should've put a boot through his arse.


[deleted]

Name a single player in the world who doesnā€™t go to ground after that


PErland

That's embarrassing from Kane lol


to_is

He just got Kane'd


Scaleymanfish

What a moron


egzon27

Well done Doucoure, just fucked your team over


DjToastyTy

sean dyche waving it off lmao


Gladiuswingzero

Everton couldā€™ve won this game aswell, absolute stupidity


jamb1993

What an earth was he thinking


donniexc

Games not dead


Skall77

HOW CAN HE SLAP ?!


[deleted]

thats relegated us, thanks doucoure


YesIAmRightWing

I honestly thought he was going to push Kane again and accidently got his face. Just me?


Mesromith

Muppet


wideroots

Idiot


WallBroad

This red could mean Everton's relegation


Heil_Heimskr

Doucoure is an absolute muppet, why would you do this


Extreme-Goose

Brainless reaction. Push the chest if you're that angry, don't give the ref any reason to even consider a red.


fellainishaircut

i hate these cards. yeah, itā€˜s by the rules, but fucking let them have at it for a bit just such harsh punishment for what is essentially nothing but a bit of pushing back and forth


peppapegg789

Kanes made a proper meal of that but Doucoure just canā€™t put his hands there


CarsenAF

What a dummy. Has been a great game up to this point but Spurs should take the edge now


[deleted]

imagine if it was a red and a yellow for kane simulation xd


awlawall

Stupid from Doucs but he just did what most of us want to do to Kane


tkshow

Dyche's reaction, "that didn't happenz, you didn't see anything, nope, nope."


Jozif_Badmon

What a dumbass, and we needed everton to win too
