Former Manchester United defender Marcos Rojo reminded fans of his fiery personality during a recent South American game.

The Argentine defender was playing for Boca Juniors in the Buenos Aires derby against River Plate.

Rojo was sent off for a wild and high challenge in the match, with the 32-year-old getting his marching orders in the seventh minute of stoppage time.

However, Boca held on to win the game 1-0, with Rojo eventually getting back onto the field to celebrate with his teammates.

Rojo spent seven years at United, making 122 appearances following his transfer from Sporting CP in 2014.
