Casemiro could not hold back the tears after being sent off during Manchester United's goalless draw with Southampton at the weekend. The Brazilian midfielder was visibly upset as he walked off the pitch, knowing he was once again facing a spell on the sidelines through suspension - having only just returned from his last ban.
The Reds ace was given his marching orders for a challenge on Southampton's Carlos Alcaraz in the first half of the clash at Old Trafford on Sunday. Casemiro lunged for a loose ball with his studs up, accidentally catching the opposition man on the front of his shin.
Referee Anthony Taylor initially brandished a yellow card, but he was advised by the VAR to review the tackle on the pitchside monitor, and he subsequently changed his decision as he sent the United midfielder off. As he was shown the red card, Casemiro bowed his head and was consoled by his teammates.
