Video: Player sent off for arguing with teammate over taking a penalty

Homeuncategorized

You may remember Nathan Dyer arguing with Jonathan De Guzman over who should take a penalty in the League Cup Final this year. He may have gotten away likely.

By Declan Whooley

It seems a little absurd, but a Honved player in the Hungarian league was given his marching orders at the weekend after trying to get the ball off his teammate to take the spot-kick.

A bit like De Guzman, the man in possession of the ball was having none of it, with even the referee fed up with the childish antics and brandished a second yellow card.

Hat-tip to James Dart

Needless to say he wasn’t overly pleased with the decision, but in his defence he might just argue he was Hungary to get on the score sheet.
