David Beckham was handed a red card by a referee as he stood watching his son play football.
The former England and Manchester United winger was dismissed for protesting against a decision during a youth match in Los Angeles.
"I was watching the kids play the other day, it was the game just before they were playing. And I was watching and it was still the same club, it was the younger kids of Romeo's club, and they're playing in the game and there was a penalty given," Beckham said on The Jonathan Ross Show.
"And the kids are seven years old and he sent the kid off. And I was like, 'Come on, he's seven years old, referee, you can't send him off' And he looked at me and was like, 'Yes, I can.' And I was like, 'Ok, well, you can't, he's seven years old.'
"And he came over and gave me a red card. He told me to get out of the park. For real. The gate was only 20 yards away and I waited and went back in when my son's game was on."
Beckham recently committed his future to LA Galaxy by signing a new contract.
