Bissouma sent off for diving<\/h2>\n
Tottenham will be without midfielder Bissouma for the next match against Fulham, having picked up two bookings and shown his marching orders, the second yellow came as a result of his blatant dive. Boss Postecoglou will likely be enraged at his star for an unnecessary sending off, after a first half that the visitors dominated despite failing to find the back of the net.<\/p>\n
The first booking came from a clumsy challenge and not too long later Bissouma dived just outside the Luton box to give the referee no other option but to produce a second yellow. He has been a key cog in the Spurs system, but now the likes of Oliver Skipp and Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg will get their chances to impress after the international break.<\/p>\n

A short corner saw the England midfielder receive the ball back before turning on himself to find a bit of room in the area, then laying it off to his centre-back to finish smartly with his first goal for the club.<\/p>\n Goalkeeper Guglielmo Vicario made a string of smart saves in the second half to keep Luton at bay, continuing his impressive start to life in the club as Hugo Lloris’ successor and although Van de Ven will get the plaudits for his strike, many will see Vicario as the unsung hero in this battling victory.<\/p>\n We use your sign-up to provide content in ways you’ve consented to and to improve our understanding of you.

Dejan Kulusevski had whipped a teasing ball into the Luton area that was beginning to be tucked away by the Brazilian, but he shot wide when his boss expected the net to burst.<\/p>\n Postecoglou was in disbelief on the touchline and had his hands on his head watching on as Richarlison blew a wonderful chance to get off to a perfect start. The Australian boss will have been desperate to see the net bulge in order for Richarlison to put a further end to his woes after a miserable first season in north London. Richarlison was substituted off at half-time, with Hojbjerg brought on in a reaction to Bissouma’s red card.<\/p>\n Bissouma’s sending off prompted a flurry of questions surrounding the precise rules of the suspension system in the Premier League, as the midfielder was set to miss Spurs’ next match against Fulham as a result of the first yellow card he picked up – his fifth of the season, which carries a one-match ban.<\/p>\n But a red card for a second bookable offence also carries a one-match ban and supporters were confused over whether Bissouma would sit out one or two matches as a result.<\/p>\n ESPN have clarified that Bissouma’s two yellow cards are classed as a red card, meaning that he will be banned for just the next match against Fulham – but he remains on four yellows for the season and his next booking will also bring another one-match ban.<\/p>\n Watch one of the biggest crossover fights of the year on DAZN as KSI and Logan Paul face off against the opponants in Manchester on October 14th.<\/p>\n It costs \u00a320.99 and you also get to enjoy DAZN for the rest of the month for just \u00a31 thanks to a special deal.<\/p>\n The Pay-per-view costs \u00a320.99 and you’ll be able to enjoy all the action on the night.<\/p>\n Spurs fans made their feelings clear on last week’s VAR controversy as they chanted “there’s only one Darren England” at Kenilworth Road.<\/p>\n England, who was in charge of the VAR last week when Liverpool wrongly had a goal disallowed for offside, has come in for plenty of criticism but he appears to still have one fanbase on side.<\/p>\n He and VAR assistant official Dan Cook have been stood down from duties this week, while technology may have come to Spurs’ rescue again after Tom Lockyer had a goal chalked off for Luton in the first half after a push on Cristian Romero.<\/p>\n![](\"https:\/\/cdn.images.express.co.uk\/img\/dynamic\/67\/590x\/secondary\/Tottenham-Yves-Bissouma-red-dive-4999443.jpg?r=1696685811201\")
