Gerrard becomes oldest English player to get a red card

Steven Gerrard holds the record of the oldest English player to be shown a red card in international football.

The Liverpool captain, 32 years and 104 days was sent out of England game against Ukraine on Tuesday night at Wembley.

The red card was the first of the Liverpool midfielder’s 98-match international career, and the Three Lions as a whole received five yellows – their worst disciplinary performance in any match since a tempestuous ‘Auld Enemy’ duel with Scotland in November 1999.
