Bolivian player fights his own manager after being subbed...and gets red carded

Footballers and their tempers, eh? In the latest example of players being huge divas, Tiago dos Santos has managed to get himself sent off whilst not even being on the pitch.

The Nacional Potosi player was subbed off in the 33rd minute, with the score level at 0-0, and he didn't take well to it. As he left the pitch, he began to berate his manager, before shoving him in the chest.

As a result he was restrained by his teammates, then escorted away by the police while he continued to fume. Furthermore, the player who came on to replace him was forced to leave the pitch, as Dos Santos was shown a red card for his immature behaviour.

To add to Nacional's woes, they went on to lose the game 4-0, mostly due to the fact that they were a man down. What an ordeal.
