Football often brings unusual stories, and this one happened in Mexico.

The main actor is Tigres defender Ugo Ayala.

His team led 2:0 at halftime against Toluca in the playoffs to enter the so-called. aperture, and the coach introduced Ajala after the break, in order to strengthen the defense and preserve a big advantage.

After only six minutes, it turned out to be a wrong decision - Ajala scored an own goal and brought the rival back into the game.

Two minutes later, the reserve player received a red card for a rough foul in the center of the field, but the referee, after reviewing the video and following the VAR signal, changed the red card to a yellow card.

However, in the 70th minute, Ajala did not avoid being sent off - due to the second yellow card.

So, in 25 minutes - own goal, two red cards, two yellow cards, one suspension - can it get worse in such a short time.
