Jota family slam red card for Liverpool striker

The wife of Liverpool striker Diogo Jota has had her say on Saturday's defeat at Tottenham.

Jota was one of two Liverpool players sent off, while they also had a goal denied by VAR.

PGMOL, the referees body, have since apologised for the decisions, describing as "significant human error".

Jota's wife, Rute Cardoso, posted the statement on social media, with the caption, "rigged game".

Rute later disputed the first yellow card for Jota by including a clown emoji in her post.
