Did you know that farting and not spitting or shouting at the referee can get you sent off the field in modern football?. Well this happened in Sweden where one, Adam Lindin Ljungkvist was sent off for simply getting rid of gas in the stomach.
According to Sweden daily , the match in question pitied Järna SK’s B-team and Pershagen SK in the country's seventh tier football.
101greatgoals understand that, in the final moments of the match, Pershagen SK’s Adam Lindin Ljungkvist, was sent off for receiving a bizarre second yellow card, for farting.
It was a strange decision, I can hardly believe it myself. Ljungkvistsaid after the bizarre moment.
I had a bad stomach and in the last minute (of the match) I farted.
Then the referee came over and gave me a yellow card, then a red card.
It was my second warning, although I completely forgot about the first (warning). I was a little angry at the ref, I could not quite believe what had happened.
All I can assume is that the ref thought I was farting on an opponent. But to provoke anyone with a fart is not particularly smart or normal.
I farted and I got the red card. The ref said it was unsportsmanlike behaviour.
