WATCH: Mourinho stunned Robertson escaped red 'Liverpool should've finished with 10'

Tottenham boss Jose Mourinho is adamant Andrew Robertson should've been sent off in their defeat to Liverpool.

Robertson lost control of the ball deep inside the Tottenham half in the 66th minute at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium before attempting to atone for his mistake with a wild lunge on the covering Japhet Tanganga.

The Scotland defender did not even concede a foul for the studs-up challenge on the Spurs youngster's ankle.

Afterwards, Mourinho told Sky Sports that Liverpool were "lucky", adding: "They could perfectly have finished the game with ten [players].

"They were lucky. They could perfectly finish the game with ten, because the VAR at that time, they were having a tea and they didn't watch Robertson for a red card."
