Manchester United defender Lisandro Martinez was sent off in the second half of his side's 2-0 defeat at Chelsea on October 31, 2026. The dismissal came after just 83 seconds on the pitch, a moment described as inexplicable by observers at Stamford Bridge.

The red card left United with ten men and effectively ended any hope of a comeback against the home side. The match concluded with Chelsea securing a 2-0 victory, extending United's difficulties in the Premier League campaign.
