Wednesday, May 11, 2011

Nagoya Grampus defender Takahiro Masukawa found himself picking up one of the fastest red cards ever during Saturday's J-League match against Shimizu S-Pulse.

The 31-year-old was rather harshly dismissed in the opening five seconds for hauling down an opponent who was through on goal after he comically let a back pass from the centre circle ghost through him.

Masukawa's dismissal though didn't seem to do Grampus much harm, as they managed to salvage a 1-1 draw.
