Sheffield United boss Chris Wilder supports the decision to overturn the red card of Tottenham attacker Heung-min Son.

Spurs appealed the forward's dismissal for his tackle on Andre Gomes during the draw at Everton, which led to the Portugal international suffering a fracture dislocation to his right ankle.

An independent regulatory commission upheld Spurs' appeal against the red card which means Son will now be free to face the Blades on Saturday.

Wilder was at Goodison Park and saw the incident clearly, and was asked if he expected the Tottenham player's ban to be overturned.

"Yes, I would have done," he said. "We went to watch Tottenham and we were right in front of it.

"Straight away you knew the severity of the injury. I imagine all managers and fellow players will be wishing Andre a really speedy recovery but it's just one of those unfortunate situations.

"From our point of view [Son] is obviously a quality player but he seems a right down-to-earth lad as well.

"But we'll be up not just against him but some other very high quality players on Saturday afternoon."
