Liverpool’s appeal against Curtis Jones’ three-match suspension was REJECTED

Following Liverpool’s unsuccessful appeal, Curtis Jones will serve his three-match suspension for the red card he got during the 2-1 loss at Tottenham.

In the first half of the match on Saturday, Jones tackled Yves Bissouma; however, the referee Simon Hooper changed the penalty to a red card after being told by the VAR to check the pitchside monitor.

The Reds attempted to have the midfielder’s three-game suspension overturned by appealing the ruling on Monday, but the club has already announced that those efforts were unsuccessful.

Hooper’s choice was controversial, and Jones was unfortunate to attack Bissouma when his foot slipped.

Hooper’s choice was controversial, as Jones made the mistake of hitting Bissouma when his foot slipped over the ball.

Because his punishent was upgraded to a dismissal, the challenge was deemed to be serious foul play and hence deserving of a three-game suspension.

As with Alexis Mac Allister’s red card against Bournemouth in August, Liverpool had hoped that the judgement would be reversed. However, their appeal was denied.

will not play in the forthcoming matches against Brighton, Everton, and Nottingham Forest; instead, he will make his domestic debut in the League Cup against Bournemouth.

If the appeal had been found to be “frivolous,” the ban might have been doubled to four games, but the review has determined that this is not the case.

Jones can play in Thursday night’s Europa League match against Union SG because the penalty does not apply in UEFA competitions.
