A footballer was red-carded for unsportsmanlike conduct after allegedly urinating by the side of the pitch during a match in Peru.
Atletico Awajun striker Sebastian Munoz was caught on camera appearing to relieve himself while waiting to take a corner kick, as the opposition goalkeeper received treatment.
Despite facing away from the pitch and towards an area without spectators, players from Cantorcillo FC alerted the referee, who issued Munoz a red card.
Peruvian football officials and Atletico Awajun have yet to comment on the incident.
Atletico Awajun, a third-division team, is currently participating in the Copa Peru playoffs.
