Bad night for Tomori and JamesTomori has actually not enjoyed his reunion with his boyhood club over the previous number of video games – after Milan were beaten adequately at Stamford Bridge recently, the Chelsea youth item lasted simply 18 minutes on Tuesday. What appeared like being a tight video game was blown open when Tomori put his arm on the shoulder of England team-mate Mount, putting the midfielder off balance enough to send him toppling to the flooring. Referee Daniel Siebert, who was main to the drama throughout to the ire of the house assistance, considered it sufficient contact to be a charge which Tomori had actually not tried to play the ball, hence bypassing the double jeopardy guideline and triggering him to reveal the red card.

While his type is an increase for Gareth Southgate, the sight of James hobbling off minutes after disconcerting his knee in the grass while making a difficulty is stressing, with the World Cup less than 6 weeks away.
