Chilean soccer player Gonzalo Jara pulled a dirty move — no pun intended — on Wednesday that resulted in Uruguay’s Edinson Cavani being sent off after getting his second yellow card.
It all started when Jara and Cavani began jawing at one another in the 63rd minute. A referee stepped in to separate the two, but Jara wasn’t finished. As soon as the ref turned his back, Jara walked over to Cavani and gave him a quick “how ya doin.”
All the referee saw was Cavani’s retaliation (which wasn’t much at all), so Cavani got the card. Chile went on to defeat Uruguay 1-0, but Jara got what was coming to him after the match. According to soccer reporter Juan Arango, he has been banned for the remainder of the Copa America.
Take this lesson and learn from it, kids. Even if you get away with sticking your finger in someone’s butt during a game, the video footage never lies.
