Football video: Brazilian defender sent-off for grabbing yellow card

I see your yellow card, and I raise you red

Botafogo’s Andre Luis was red-carded in the Copa Sudamericana match with Estudiantes after snatching the yellow card from the referee’s hand. He then flashes it around a bit before screwing it up and putting it back into the ref’s hand. He promptly receives a red card for his troubles.
