A bizarre moment occurred between two Premier League teammates on Monday night and ended with one of them being sent off.

Gueye and Keane clashed, leading to Keane pushing Gueye, who then slapped Keane in the face in response. Referee Tony Harrington showed Gueye a red card and the midfielder was sent to the locker room.
Everton goalkeeper Jordan Pickford and winger Illiman Ndiaye intervened and managed to get Gueye out of the situation.

“The referee’s red card to Gueye for violent conduct was verified and confirmed by VAR, with the action deemed to be a clear strike to Keane’s face,” the Premier League match center wrote on social media.
Fernandes managed to shoot after Gueye collected the ball in the penalty area. He sent it into space, probably thinking Keane would send it onto the field. Keane didn’t and Fernandes took the shot.
The veteran Manchester United player failed to score, but the shot was enough to send Keane out.
Everton, as best they could, managed to recover from the hubbub and go 1-0 up in the 29th minute thanks to a goal from Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall.
