VIDEO: The old Casemiro is back! With Southampton, he saw a straight red card for a nasty tackle in the first half
Casemiro once again turned up the music and saw a straight red card in the 34th minute for a nasty tackle in the Southampton game.
Casemiro once again turned up the music and saw a straight red card in the 34th minute for a nasty tackle in the Southampton game.
Casemiro is regarded as the bogey man of all offensive players on the green turf and his role in the team is so clear. When the game needs to be tightened up, the Brazilian is just the man. But sometimes his interventions are on the edge and that was not the case in today’s match of the 27th round of the Premier League.
During that one, Manchester United were trying to defend third place in English football’s top competition with Southampton in the battle for European Cups. However, the situation was not made easier for their team by midfielder Casemiro, who had to leave the field in the 34th minute.
After a very sharp intervention by the pins forward against Carlos Alcaraz, the referee Anthony Taylor first assessed the intervention with a yellow card. But after watching the video, he pulled out a straight red card and sent the Brazilian to the showers. The weakened team only drew at home and already has Tottenham breathing down its neck.
It was the second red card for the Red Devils, where he transferred from Real Madrid before the season. At the beginning of last month, he also had to leave the pitch early for choking Will Hughes during a match against Crystal Palace.
Although it seems unbelievable, the 31-year-old defensive shield received only his second straight red card during his career and both were for Manchester United. Also surprising is the fact that it was only the fourth red card of his prolific football career.
