Lyon defender Nicolás Tagliafico has found himself in the spotlight once again after picking up another red card—his second in just four days.
The incident occurred during Matchday 27 of Ligue 1, where Lyon fell to Monaco 1-2. The Argentine committed a reckless foul that earned him a straight red, leaving his side a man down in the 89th minute.
