Allan from Corinthians sent off with red card over obscene hand signal in Fluminense fixture

Allan from Corinthians sent off with red card over obscene hand signal in Fluminense fixture

Allan, who joined Liverpool back in 2015 yet never featured in a single competitive match for the Premier League side due to work permit issues, received a yellow card shortly after the break during Wednesdays clash with Fluminense following a heated exchange with Luciano Acosta.

Moments later, as the official looked elsewhere, the 29 year old directed the vulgar motion at Fluminenses striker Kevin Serna.

Following a prompt from the video assistant referee, the match official reviewed footage on the touchline monitor and promptly dismissed Allan from the field.
