Champions League: Sevilla’s En-Nesyri sets unwanted record in Salzburg draw

The Spanish top-flight side was held at home by the Austrians, with the Morocco striker registering his name in an undesirable book in the process

Youssef En-Nesyri became the sixth Moroccan to be sent off in a Champions League encounter following his dismissal in Sevilla’s 1-1 draw with RB Salzburg on Tuesday night.

The 24-year-old was sent off for a second caution by referee Aleksei Kulbakov in the 50th minute of the keenly contested encounter in Estadio Ramon Sanchez Pizjuan.

En-Nesyri was first booked in the 26th minute, however, he was shown the way out with the scores tied at 1-1.
