Manchester United loanee’s goalscoring evening was ruined by this very soft red card

Manchester United youngster Andreas Pereira has been in a rich run of form in recent weeks.

The Brazilian, who is currently on loan with Spanish side Granada, scored his third goal in four games in his club's 4-1 victory over Real Betis. But his evening was marred by a soft red card, where it looked like he was the victim rather than the perpetrator. Pereira put his side 3-0 up when he tapped home the rebound after a Mehdi Carcela-Gonzalez shot was saved. https://twitter.com/Devils_Related/status/832690727708741632 However, during the second half, the 21-year-old was given his marching orders after a coming-together with Betis player Matías Nahuel, who was also dismissed. It appeared as though Nahuel slapped Pereira, who was guilty of little more than a nudge to the back of the Spain Under-21 man, but referee Daniel Ocón ordered both players to leave the pitch. Granada remain in the bottom three despite the victory, which was their second on the bounce at home.
