Video: Ridiculous red card as player lunges in only to miss his target and hit another player

The red mist really descended on this player, as he lunged two footed at the man with the ball, but completely missed and nailed someone else

The red mist really descended on this player, as he lunged two footed at the man with the ball, but completely missed and nailed someone else

It can be very frustrating to play against someone who’s got a good bit more skill than yourself and that frustration can boil over when they pull off a few tricks and embarrass you.

That looks to be what happened to Zhang Jingyang after he was left running around trying to get the ball from Giovanni Moreno of Shanghai Shenhua earlier this week.

His anger got the better of him as he lunged in to let Moreno know he wasn’t happy, but he completely missed and ended up taking out Dai Lin, a totally different opponent. A fairly justified red, we would say.
