Sergio Ramos and red cards

Sergio Ramos holds the record for being the player to be sent off the most number of times in the history of Real Madrid. The 30-year-old has, in fact, till date been shown the red card 21 times with the most recent one being in the El Clasico last year.

Ramos’ physicality in games gets the better of him on many occasions but what has let him down the most in the past is his decision making in vital moments of games. Having just returned from a red card against Barcelona last season, he slid into Luis Suarez late into the game and saw red once again.

But this hasn’t stopped the Real Madrid talisman from remaining true to his nature even when the going gets tough. Ramos’ playing style might get him sent off occasionally but it also helps Real Madrid win a majority of their games – the latest example being their 40-match winning streak; the longest ever by a Spanish club.
