Former Juventus striker Cristian Bunino has made headlines in Italy after bizarrely being sent off for urinating on the touchline during a third-tier match.
Bunino, 26, plays for Serie C side Lecco and was due to be brought on as a second-half substitute in their Group A game away to Piacenza, which ended 0-0 on Sunday. In the 73rd minute, manager Luciano Foschi called on the twice-capped Italy Under-19 international to make an entrance - but mother nature called and he was shown a red card before getting a minute.
As he prepared to enter Sunday's contest, Bunino relieved himself on the touchline, slyly attempting to hide what he was doing. Unfortunately for the ex-Juve forward, an assistant referee spotted his unsavoury antics. Bunino was promptly shown a red card, as per the Italian football rulebook, with the players already on the pitch being left rather bemused.
