A FOOTBALLER was astonishingly sent off after peeking by the side of the pitch before taking a corner.
The bizarre moment took place during a Copa Peru match between Atletico Awajun and Cantorcillo FC.
In the 71st minute, Awajun was awarded a corner with the two teams locked in a goalless draw.
Awajun player Sebastian Munoz waited to take the set piece as Cantorcillo keeper Lucho Ruiz received medical attention in the penalty area.
But when Munoz realized Ruiz was not going to be ready for some time, he incredibly took the opportunity to turn around and relieve himself.
One of the Cantorcillo players caught him in the act and pointed to make the referee aware.
The official then went over to Munoz and gave him a straight red card.
Reacting to the clip on social media, one person said: “Is This The Most Embarrassing Sending Off Ever? From the Copa Peru. A red card that has to be seen to be believed.”
This is not the first time a player has gone to the toilet during a match.
In 2017, Salford keeper Max Crocombe was sent off for urinating during a National League North match against Bradford.
One year earlier, Mansfield forward Adi Yussuf was handed a fine and a five-game ban after peeing at the back of a stand while his side played in a League Two clash against Plymouth.
In 2009, Jens Lehmann memorably took a pee during a match.
The goalkeeper was playing for Stuttgart at the time and hopped over the advertising hoardings behind the goal to relieve himself before he was interrupted when Unirea Urziceni went on a counter-attack and he had to rush back in goal.
Gary Lineker famously pooed on the pitch while leading the line for England against the Republic of Ireland at the World Cup ’90.
Heading into the game with an upset stomach, Lineker was forced to wipe his shorts on the turf in a moment he would rather forget.
