VIDEO: Serbian footballer flat-out refuses to leave the field after red card, proceeds to destroy hoardings

Zero chill displayed on his way off

One of the stranger scenes we’ve seen from the footballing world in recent years took place in Russia’s top flight last night.

After Milos Markovic was given his marching orders for a second yellow card in Ceahlaul’s home defeat to Steaua Bucuresti, he showed all the composure of Tim Sherwood at a rave.

He initially refused to leave the field of play, acting as if the referee would forget all about the red card before finally conceding that he might have to actually depart if the game was to restart.

But he didn’t leave reservedly. He went all Conor McGregor on the advertising hoardings and he’ll have a sore foot this morning to accompany his embarrassment.
