Moroccan international Youssef En-Nesyri received a red card, the first since he started his career. He was sent off on Tuesday, during the match between FC Seville and RB Salzburg, as part of the first day of the Champions League.

The Atlas Lion had already received a caution in the 26th minute of play for trying to find a penalty in the opposing penalty area. An action deemed a simulation by the referee, who sanctions him with a second yellow card in the 50th minute.

It was with 10 players that Seville finished the match, which ended in a 1-1 draw.
