While six red cards and 15 minutes injury time is enough on its own to cause headlines, a keeper doing his best Luis Suarez impression capped it all off.

The Romanian league game between Petrolul and Gaz Metan nearly escaped our attention, but when the game descended into a free for all, we decided to take a closer look.
Liverpool’s Uruguayan striker will be forever associated with trying to nibble on Branislav Ivanovic’s arm, but this goalkeeper really went looking for his pound of flesh after sinking his gnashers into an opponent who had been on the ground.
And he reacts in a stronger fashion than the Chelsea defender did, swinging a punch in retaliation before the referee issues a red card. Not that he was the only one as five other players finished the game early in a match that could well be described as tempestuous.
With 11 yellows – 10 in the second half - and six red cards, the official played a staggering 15 minutes of injury time which allowed Petrolul score from the spot-kick.
Here is when the action really kicked off.
