PHOTO: Brutal challenge earns Adrian red card during West Ham loss

West Ham went down to 10 men when 'keeper Adrian was sent off in the final minutes of Saturday's 2-1 loss to Leicester City.

After joining the West Ham attack during a corner kick in a last-ditch effort to find an equaliser, the Spanish netminder carelessly stuck his foot out to regain possession.

Unfortunately for Adrian, his challenge caught Jamie Vardy in the mid-section, forcing match official Anthony Taylor to show him a straight red.

Carl Jenkinson was forced to finish the game in goal since West Ham had used its remaining substitutes by the time Adrian committed the injury-time foul.

The straight red card will result in a ban, meaning the Premier League's longest run of consecutive starts will come to an end.
