GOALKEEPER Rodrigo Moura was sent off for time-wasting during his Chaves side's clash with Portimonense yesterday.
The Brazilian dawdled over a goal kick with his side leading 2-0 in the 88th minute, only to be shocked when the ref took action.
Moura was already on a yellow card as he dallied over his kick.
Ref Manuel Mota brandished his yellow card, then took a few paces before seemingly realising that Moura had already been booked.
Mota shook his head as he flashed his red card.
Moura's face was a picture of confusion as he waved his arms and protested the decision.

Chaves had earlier taken the lead through Juninho's strike on the half hour.
Issah Abass made it two on 73 minutes, before his side's late scare.
Following Moura's dismissal, Chaves called on sub goalkeeper Goncalo Filipe to see the game out.
