Fulham make the trip to Newcastle on Saturday and it’s become a bigger mountain to climb after a shocking incident from Raúl Jiménez.
The Mexican striker attempted to put pressure on Sean Longstaff but was sent off for his rash challenge.
The Newcastle defender had already distributed the ball when Jiménez lept in the air and bodychecked Longstaff, connecting with his face first.
The initial card was yellow, but VAR changed it to red as the Mexico international received the first direct send-off of his career.
