DTotD: Vasco defender kicks opponent in the face

Vasco da Gama defender Rodrigo was a split second too late to the ball, so he settled for the next best thing and kicked Corinthians’ Malcom in the face instead.

Rodrigo was already on a yellow at the time, so this was more than enough to get him a second booking and an early shower. Malcom somehow continued on in the match, albeit with just one eyebrow still attached to his head.

This has been the Dirty Tackle of the Day: a chronicling of unfortunate events.
