Chelsea's manager, Enzo Maresca, received a red card after celebrating the team's thrilling late winner against Liverpool.
Maresca had already been cautioned for dissent after expressing his dissatisfaction with a VAR decision regarding a penalty appeal.
Following Willian Estevão’s stunning late goal, the Italian sprinted the length of the pitch to join in the celebration with his players.
This celebration prompted referee Anthony Taylor to show him a second yellow card.
Maresca’s dismissal did not impact Chelsea’s victory, as it occurred in the 96th minute at Stamford Bridge.
This win propels Chelsea to sixth place with 11 points after seven matches.
Meanwhile, Liverpool now occupies the second position, trailing Arsenal, who secured a 2-0 victory over West Ham earlier on Saturday.
