Vine: Seattle footballer gets clearest red card in history

JOE

Brazilian footballers are usually known for their skill and close control, but Seattle Sounders reserve player Sergio is trying to single-handedly destroy that image.

The midfielder was playing for the MLS club’s second-string against LA Galaxy’s reserves when an opponent got him riled up, or so we’ll have to assume.

While on the ground, he flung himself feet-first into the Galaxy player for one of the more blatant red cards you’re likely to see in any league at any time.

Hopefully he didn’t try to claim that he got the ball.
