Sunderland star shown first-half red card after KICKING OUT at Aston Villa player in moment of madness

A moment of madness from Sunderland's Reinildo saw him sent off in the first half of their Premier League clash with Aston Villa.

The left back was given his marching orders in the 33rd minute with the game locked at 0-0 after clashing with Matty Cash.

The Villa full back had left the Mozambican on the floor with a late challenge before the former Atletico Madrid defender allowed his frustrations get the better of him.

Still clinging onto Cash's arm, Reinildo kicked out into the Poland international's midriff.
