During a Premier League match against Leeds, Lisandro Martinez of Manchester United was sent off after pulling the hair of Leeds striker Dominic Calvert-Lewin. The incident occurred when Martinez jumped to contest a header and inadvertently grabbed Calvert-Lewin's ponytail, which was initially missed by referee Paul Tierney but caught by VAR. After reviewing the footage, Tierney issued a red card for violent conduct, leading to a three-match suspension for Martinez. This match marked his return from injury, having been sidelined since February, but he lasted only 55 minutes on the field. His absence will be felt in upcoming matches against Chelsea, Brentford, and Liverpool. At the time of the dismissal, United was trailing 2-0 after two goals from Noah Okafor, although Martinez made a critical last-ditch tackle to prevent a larger deficit.
