Ethan Ampadu fell victim to one of football's worst ever red card decisions after being sent off while playing for Venezia despite pulling off a clean tackle.

During the home defeat by fellow strugglers Salernitana this week, Ampadu stepped forward to rob the ball off Franck Ribery, only for the referee to blow for a foul.
