Chelsea manager Frank Lampard spoke up for Antonio Rudiger on Tuesday after the defender was criticised by Tottenham Hotspur boss Jose Mourinho for his part in the sending off of Son Heung-min in Sunday’s 2-0 derby win.
Son kicked out in retaliation at Chelsea defender Antonio Rudiger as they challenged for the ball, and referee Anthony Taylor produced a straight red after a VAR review, leaving Spurs with 10 men for the last half hour.
