Liverpool loanee Harvey Elliott sent off for two yellows inside a minute

Liverpool loanee Harvey Elliott was sent off for two yellow card in under a minute during Valencia's 2-1 defeat to Villarreal in LaLiga on Saturday.

It took Elliott's loan spell in Spain thus far from bad to worse with the 23-year-old yet to start for Valencia, making six substitute appearances this season. He is also yet to score or assist for the LaLiga side.

The game was level at 1-1 at the time of his sending off, the 89th minute, with Villareal going on to take all three points in the sixth minute of stoppage time as Georges Mikautadze put one past the 10-man Valencia side.

Elliott appeared frustrated with a decision going against one of his teammates, before referee Alejandro Quintero Gonzalez booked him twice in the space of seconds for apparent dissent.

Elliott left Liverpool on loan in the summer after failing to force his way into new manager Andoni Iraola's plans. The move followed a horror spell on loan at Aston Villa last season, where he was frozen out of the first-team squad by Unai Emery.
