According to ESPN, the Premier League's Independent Key Match Incidents Panel has ruled that Jota was wrongly sent off against Spurs.
Jota made two tackles on Destiny Udogie within a minute, leading to a red card, but the panel have now ruled that the second challenge was not worthy of a second booking.
Liverpool already had reason to feel hard done by the officials during the 2-1 loss to Ange Postecoglou's side, after the PGMOL confirmed Luis Díaz's disallowed goal in the first half should have stood, despite being ruled out by VAR.
The error occurred due to the VAR officials believing the on-field decision was a goal, despite the linesman flagging for off-side shortly after the Columbian winger had lashed his effort past Guglielmo Vicario in the Spurs goal.
