Cole Palmer was dismissed in Chelsea's 2-0 Premier League defeat to Tottenham and will serve a one-match ban in Wednesday's Carabao Cup game at Liverpool.

Chelsea lost 2-0 to Tottenham in the Premier League at Stamford Bridge, with Cole Palmer sent off after two yellow cards in nine second-half minutes. The dismissal means he will miss Chelsea's Carabao Cup trip to Liverpool at Anfield on Wednesday through a one-match suspension.

How the red card unfolded

Palmer received the first sending-off of his professional career against Spurs. Referee Chris Kavanagh first booked him for his involvement in a scuffle with Mateus Fernandes before showing a second yellow card in the 80th minute after Palmer left his studs on Conor Gallagher.

Suspension for Wednesday

According to the Liverpool Echo, suspensions resulting from a red card in the Premier League carry over into domestic cup competitions. Palmer will therefore serve a one-match ban and miss Wednesday's Carabao Cup clash against Liverpool at Anfield.

Neville's verdict

Speaking on Sky Sports, former Manchester United defender Gary Neville said: "He's spot on the referee, Cole Palmer has lost his head in the last 10 minutes."

Neville added: "That one is no-brainer. That's just a silly challenge, he knows exactly what he's doing. Not a good challenge, naughty, really naughty."
