Lescott should have had a penalty late on too.
Dirk Kuyt's lunge on Phil Neville was worthy of a red card too, even more so than Tony Hibbert's.

"Under-fire ref Clattenburg removed from duty
Mark Clattenburg will not be refereeing a Barclays Premier League match this weekend. The official was criticised for his handling of the Merseyside derby between Everton and Liverpool at Goodison Park on Saturday.
And the Professional Game Match Board have decided Clattenburg will not take charge of a top flight game this weekend.
The Tyne and Wear official incurred the wrath of Toffees manager David Moyes after he sent off Tony Hibbert for bringing down Steven Gerrard in the box.
Dirk Kuyt scored the penalty and 10 minutes later infuriated home fans and players for an aerial lunge at Everton's Phil Neville which only incurred a yellow card.
It meant Kuyt was still on the pitch and available to take the last-minute penalty which gave Liverpool a 2-1 victory.
Kuyt acknowledged afterwards the tackle 'looks bad', adding: 'Maybe I was a bit lucky.'
Everton's veteran defender Alan Stubbs said: 'It was a two-footed lunge. If a player leaves the ground with both feet, that's a red card.
'In the laws of the game if a player goes in with two feet and makes a lunge, and that is what it was, it's a red.'
On the penalty Stubbs added: 'The referee went to book Tony Hibbert holding a yellow card, Steven Gerrard walked past him (the referee) and it changed to a red.
'We saw the replays. That's disappointing. We were 1-0 at half-time and on top, we had control of the game.'
At the end Liverpool defender Jamie Carragher appeared to haul Joleon Lescott to the ground as Everton's nine men fought for an equaliser.
And Stubbs raged: 'If the referee looks at the decision again he will see the penalty appeal was right. Their lad had his arms all around Joleon, what was he supposed to do?
'It's a stonewall penalty. The referee was close, but that means nothing. He was close to a lot of things and didn't give them.
'We are disappointed because we have lost. But there was zero feedback from the referee, I think they should have to come out after a game and explain themselves.
'We have to explain ourselves if we make bad decisions or mistakes, why not referees? "

Looks like the poor sod's in a wee bit of trouble.
He's the second referee to have had some sort of disciplinary action taken on him after refereeing our match.... At this rate, no one will want to referee us in the future.... Would appear to be a "d@mned if you do and d@mned if you don't" sort of gig for them..![]()
