6. Yoav Ziv literally gets “kicked” out:
After being stepped on by a Stoke City player, Ziv’s shoe fell off and he was furious when the ref didn’t call a foul. So to get the assistant referee’s attention, he kicked his shoe at him, hence he was told to leave the match with a nice red card.
5. Clint Dempsey tears up ref’s notebook:
When a Seattle Sounders teammate got booked, Dempsey argued with the ref, and was so angry he took the referee’s notepad and tore it up while walking off the pitch. He received his second yellow for the move, and was the Sounders’ third player to be sent off, while one had gotten injured after all subs had been made, leaving the Sounders to finish with just seven men.
