The Premier League has deleted a social media post which appeared to mock Tottenham goalkeeper Guglielmo Vicario following fan backlash and a complaint by the club.
On Sunday night, the Premier League posted on its official X account a video of Vicario sending a free-kick down the length of the pitch and out for a goal-kick during Sunday's loss at Fulham, with the caption: "Just how the play was drawn up."
The video, which also featured the words "an interesting free-kick from Vicario" followed by "whoops", was widely criticised before being deleted on Monday morning.
Tottenham contacted the Premier League to complain about the post, voicing their view that the league should not be mocking its own teams and players.
Spurs remain just four points above the relegation places after the 2-1 defeat at Fulham on Sunday afternoon.
They have lost four consecutive games and are winless in 10 league matches before hosting Crystal Palace on Thursday.
