He may be one of the best center backs in the business, but he's also one of the dirtiest.
Sergio Ramos will go down in history as the most sent-off player in La Liga history, as he collected his 19th red card while playing domestic games with Los Blancos. Prior to the start of the game, Ramos shared the not-so flattering record with Pablo Alfaro and Xavi Aguado.

Ramos' red card couldn't have come in a worse moment for Los Blancos, as they were pushing to break the deadlock against Athletic to cut Barcelona's eight-point lead at the top of La Liga. The player's disciplinary record is not flattering at all, especially when yo consider the amount of times he's watched the red card wearing Real's jersey.
"Sergio Ramos with Real Madrid: 24 red card in 541 official games (one every 22 games)
Sergio Ramos with Sevilla: 0 red cards in 50 games.
Sergio Ramos with the Spanish NT: 0 (yes, ZERO) red cards in 149 games."

Due to this red card, the center back will have to watch Real Madrid play against Sevilla from the stands next week.
