Casemiro has now been sent off as many times at Manchester United as he was in his entire career at Real Madrid.

The Brazil midfielder was shown the red card after 34 minutes of United's Premier League game against Southampton at Old Trafford on Sunday following a reckless challenge on Saints attacker Carlos Alcaraz.

It was Casemiro's second straight red card in his short time at Manchester United, having already been dismissed n the game against Crystal Palace earlier this year.
