Overview
- Leeds right-back Jayden Bogle made a studs‑first challenge that struck Mathys Tel on the ankle and left the forward needing treatment.
- Referee John Brooks showed no card on the pitch and VAR reviewed the incident for more than four minutes before advising that the original decision stand.
- Tel tried to continue but was substituted before half-time, with Dominic Solanke replacing him in the 43rd minute.
- The tackle has prompted debate because challenges that endanger an opponent or use excessive force can be a red card for serious foul play under the Laws of the Game.
- Tottenham now await a medical assessment for Tel as the club copes with multiple attacking absences and will need to adjust selections and tactics while they learn the extent of the injury.
