Striker’s ‘studs-up’ tackle picked up by VARCalvert-Lewin is set to serve a three-match ban
Everton have appealed against the VAR-assisted red card Dominic Calvert-Lewin received at Crystal Palace.
The striker’s tackle on Nathaniel Clyne in the 79th minute of the goalless FA Cup third-round draw at Selhurst Park led to a VAR review. Calvert-Lewin was dismissed by the referee, Christopher Kavanagh, for what was deemed to be a studs-up challenge once Kavanagh had seen a replay. Play had initially been allowed to run on.
