Former Manchester City midfielder Yaya Toure made a dramatic exit from the football pitch after being sent off just 10 seconds into his celebratory match.
The 36-year-old was involved in a tussle with an opposition player and subsequently kicked out at him, earning him a straight red card.
Despite the early exit, Toure's side Qingdao Huanghai went on to lose 2-1 but were crowned champions, securing their first-ever promotion to the Chinese Super League.
Toure had earlier taken to social media to congratulate his side on their historic achievement, tweeting: "Promotion!!! Next season Qingdao Huanghai FC will be where they should be... the Chinese Super League!"
His early exit from the match has drawn comparisons to Zinedine Zidane's infamous red card in the 2006 World Cup final.
It remains to be seen if this is indeed Toure's last game as a professional footballer, but one thing is certain - he will be remembered for his dramatic exit from the sport.
