I think that's the clearest view of the tackle and absolutely should be all the FA needs to view to determine that this was never a red card. I personally don't think it's a yellow, but sure, a yellow is acceptable. It's a rather routine foul though with a completely non-routine outcome.
So we did appeal the red card
Tottenham appeal against Son Heung-min red card for André Gomes challenge
Tottenham have appealed to the Football Association against Son Heung-min’s dismissal at Everton on Sunday, which led to André Gomes’s horrific injurywww.google.com
Wonder when we'll find out.
It would be good if they decided one way or another sharpish.Thursday/Friday I'm guessing.
No impact on the CL fixture in the meantime.
I'm not holding my breath given they've already spoken out to condone the original decision... We're probably just appealing on principal tbh.

Son's state of mind will be shot to pieces but if it gets rescinded then maybe he won't punish himself as much.
He's going to feel awful about it either way.
I''m not sure he'll play Wednesday
"The red card for Son was for endangering the safety of a player, which happened as a consequence of his initial challenge."
I really don’t think the change from yellow to red was that quick. From what I recall he held up the yellow in the regular way, time passed and then bang here is the red. I don’t think I have the game on Sky Q so can’t watch it back and time it and confirm if my recall is correct - does anyone else ?The ref had a yellow card in his hand but changed it to a red in just about 5 seconds or so when he saw the outrage of the players around him. So i think var had no time to get involved and when the red card was given to son they thought we better stay out of this. I voted yes just because i hope they correct a wrong decision for once

still whatever they do, we don’t get our two points and that monkey off our backs do we ?
Its the football version of political correctnessThis is the kind of bullshit I'm usually served at work.
