Right after kickoff, forward Rafa Silva first collided with one opponent and then elbowed another. The absurd foul occurred in the 3rd second of the match and immediately resulted in a red card.
Reminder: The player let his team down, which ultimately lost 0-3, practically losing their chance to qualify for next season’s Copa Libertadores.
