Amad Diallo was shown a second yellow for his wild celebration after producing the unlikely winner for Manchester United with his 121st minute strike in the quarter-finals of the FA Cup.
The 21-year-old Ivorian came on as a substitute in the 85th minute for Raphael Varane and produced the match winner after Garnacho broke free after winning a misplaced pass from Harvey Elliott.
The United player admitted that he forgot about his first yellow having been booked just six minutes earlier for tripping Virgil Van Dijk.
Despite seeing red for whipping off his shirt in celebration, Diallo won't miss United's FA Cup semi-final clash between Coventry City, thanks to recent rules introduced into the English game although Diallo will have to serve a one-match ban.
The recent rules brought into the English game state that certain suspensions have to be served in the competition they are accrued in. However this rule doesn't apply for red cards.
