Wayne Rooney trudges off the pitch in the pre-season friendly against Porto.
The England striker had scored a sublime goal for the Red Devils before jumping for a header with Porto defender Pepe's and receiving a red card for a raised arm.
The England man was stunned to see the red card brandished in his face once more - just as it was the last time he faced Portuguese opposition in the World Cup just over a month ago.
Reds manager Sir Alex Ferguson was clearly furious with the referee's dubious decision but Rooney had no choice but to head for the dressing room after waiting in vain to see the incident again on the giant TV screen.
Paul Scholes was also sent off, for a late challenge, but it was unclear if it was a second-yellow card offence or a straight red.
Both players could miss the start of the season.
