Premier League star gets red card after slapping teammate in face during match

A bizarre moment occurred between two Premier League teammates on Monday night that ended with one of them getting sent off.

The incident occurred between Everton players Idrissa Gueye and Michael Keane in the 13th minute against Manchester United. Gueye and Keane were arguing after Gueye turned the ball over, leading to a shot from Manchester United’s Bruno Fernandes.

Gueye and Keane were in each other’s faces, leading to Keane shoving Gueye, who then slapped Keane in the face in response. Referee Tony Harrington showed Gueye a red card and the midfielder was sent back to the locker room.

Everton goalkeeper Jordan Pickford and winger Illiman Ndiaye intervened and were able to get Gueye away from the situation.

“The referee’s call of red card to Gueye for violent conduct was checked and confirmed by VAR — with the action deemed to be a clear strike to the face of Keane,” the Premier League match center wrote on social media.

Fernandes was able to get the shot off after Gueye had corralled the ball in the penalty area. He passed it into space, likely thinking Keane would send it down the field. Keane didn’t and Fernandes got the shot off.

The veteran Manchester United player failed to score, but the shot was enough to set Keane off.

Everton, somehow, managed to recover from the brouhaha and go up 1-0 in the 29th minute thanks to a goal from Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall.

Panthers reach 7 wins for first time since 2022 with upset victory over Rams

The Carolina Panthers created havoc for the Los Angeles Rams and received a boost from the sloppy weather as they defeated the best team in the NFC, 31-28.

Carolina notched its seventh win of the year. It’s the first time they have won at least seven games since the 2022 season when Matt Rhule, and eventually Steve Wilks, were at the helm. The Panthers also snapped the Rams’ six-game winning streak.

Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford entered the game as the NFL MVP favorite. It seemed like he was going to have a big game as he led the team down for a touchdown on the opening drive. At the time, it was his 28th touchdown pass without an interception, which broke an NFL record.

The good vibes didn’t last long as Stafford threw an interception on his next drive and later had a pick six to Panthers cornerback Mike Jackson. The Panthers’ defense then forced Stafford to fumble the ball on the Rams’ final drive, which sunk any hopes of them coming back to force overtime or win the game.

Panthers quarterback Bryce Young was 15-of-20 with 206 passing yards and three touchdown passes. He found rookie wide receiver Tetairoa McMillan for a 43-yard go-ahead touchdown with 6:34 left in the game. It was McMillan’s only catch of the game.

Carolina’s Jalen Coker had four catches for 74 yards and a touchdown. Running back Chuba Hubbard had two catches for 41 yards and a touchdown. He also added 83 yards on the ground on 17 carries.

Stafford finished 18-of-28 with 243 passing yards and two touchdown passes. Both touchdowns were to Davante Adams, who finished with four catches for 58 yards.

The Panthers’ (7-6) win kept them in contention for the NFC South lead. The Tampa Bay Buccaneers have a higher winning percentage after their win over the Arizona Cardinals, moving to 7-5.
