VIDEO: Jozy Altidore tells the referee what’s what, the ref tells him what’s what with a red card

Whoops

Conan Doherty

Oh, Jozy.

We’ve seen plenty a stupid red card in our time. And they don’t always come at Anfield from a skipper playing out his swansong against United.

Former Sunderland *cough* striker, Jozy Altidore, has staked his claim for stupidest red card of the year though with this piece of madness in USA’s game tonight.

The Americans drew 1-1 with Switzerland in an international friendly but they were leading until Altidore’s moment of madness.

Big Jozy tracks back, puts in a fluffy enough challenge and the ref awards a free kick in a complete non-threatening area.

Altidore seems to say, ‘f**k you’ and but the ref says it better as he hoists a red card into the air to speak louder than any of the player’s curse words could.
