Queens Park Rangers skipper Joey Barton has been sent off during the R's Premier League clash with Manchester City.
The 29-year-old was given his marching orders for an off-the-ball altercation with Carlos Tevez, but after he was shown the red card, he kneed Sergio Aguero in the back.
As he tried to leave the pitch, he headbutted Vincent Kompany before tangling with Manchester City substitute Mario Balotelli.
QPR currently lead Manchester City 2-1.
