A bizarre moment occurred between two Premier League team-mates on Monday night that ended with one of them being sent off.
The incident happened between Everton players Idrissa Gueye and Michael Keane in the 13th minute against Manchester United. Gueye and Keane argued after Gueye turned the ball over, leading to a shot from Manchester United’s Bruno Fernandes.

Gueye and Keane were in each other’s faces, leading to Keane pushing Gueye, who then punched Keane in the face in response. Referee Tony Harrington gave Gueye a red card and the midfielder was sent back to the dressing room.
Everton goalkeeper Jordan Pickford and winger Illiman Ndiaye intervened and were able to get Gueye out of the situation.

“The referee’s call for a red card to Gueye for violent conduct was checked and confirmed by VAR – with the action deemed a clear attack on Keane,” the Premier League match center wrote on social media.
Fernandes was able to get the shot off after Gueye got the ball into the penalty area. He sent it into space, probably thinking Keane was going to send it down the field. Keane didn’t and Fernandes fired over.
The veteran Manchester United player failed to score, but the shot was enough to set Keane off.
Everton somehow managed to recover from the brouhaha and go up 1-0 in the 29th minute thanks to a goal from Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall.
