Nimes defender Anthony Briancon was sent off following one of the most shocking challenges of the year.
After Rennes wonderkid Eduardo Camavinga cutely flicked the ball past him in the Ligue One game this evening, the 25-year old completely took his opponent's head off with a wild clothesline move that one would normally come to expect in a WWE ring.
All that was missing was the iconic commentary of Jim Ross absolutely losing his mind.
The slow motion replay shows just how the sickening impact was, and Camavinga needed to undergo treatment following the collision.
At first, Briancon was only shown a yellow card for doing his best JBL impression but when the incident was referred to VAR, he was then correctly given his marching orders just after half-time.
With a one-man advantage for the majority of the second half, the hosts scored a late winner after Mbaye Niang popped up in the 89th minute with his second goal of the game.
Julien Stephan's side moved back into third on 44 points courtesy of the win.
That is an absolutely shocking red card 😮— Football on BT Sport (@btsportfootball) February 23, 2020
