In a Football League One soccer match from the UK, Portsmouth defender Sam Sodje was given a straight red card for smacking Oldham striker Jose Baxter in the groin...twice.
It happened in the 50th minute as Sodje and Baxter were having words. After the first low blow, Baxter covered up and pushed Sodje away, but Sodje came back and hit him even harder. Not clear what was said to make Sodje so upset, but he clearly needs to work on his anger management skills.
Oldham defeated Portsmouth 1-0.
