Country – In a strange incident, the Jordanian youth team player, “Bakr Kamal Kalbouneh,” scored a “negative” historical record during the 2023 AFC Youth Football Championship held in Uzbekistan.
He was shown a red card 5 seconds after kick-off
And the Jordanian player got the red card, only 5 seconds after the kick-off of Jordan’s match against Tajikistan, on Thursday. Which may qualify him to enter the Guinness Book of Records.
On Thursday, the AFC U-20 Championship began in Uzbekistan, with the participation of 16 teams in 4 groups. The tournament will be played from March 1 to March 18, and the teams that reach the semi-finals will officially qualify for the 2023 FIFA World Youth Championship in May.
A video clip showed the Jordanian player, dressed in a red flannel, jogging towards the ball.
And “Kalbouna” raised his foot high to hit the head of the Tajikistan national team player, in a dangerous intervention to obtain a high ball, which caused a serious injury to the Tajik defender “Makhrobun Karimov”, and then the referee approaches and raises the red card before expelling him.

The Jordan national team succeeded in defeating Tajikistan 2-0, at Lokomotiv Stadium in Tashkent, in the first round of Group C competitions in the AFC U-20 Youth Cup 2023 in Uzbekistan.
Ali Azaiza (7) and Saif Al-Din Darwish (25) scored the winning goals for the Jordanian national team. The Jordanian national team completed the match with ten players after striker Bakr Kalbouna was sent off in the first minute.
The second round of group competitions will be held on Sunday, where Jordan will meet South Korea, and Oman will meet Tajikistan.
The first two teams from each group qualify for the quarter-finals, whose matches will be held on March 11 and 12.
It is noteworthy that the teams that finish in the first four places in the tournament qualify for the FIFA U-20 Youth World Cup 2023 in Indonesia.
The fastest red cards in the history of the game
According to the siteSky NewsAl-Kalbouni entered the list of the fastest red cards in the history of the game, as Walter Boyd was expelled immediately after the start of the match, after he got into a fight with his club Swansea.
Likewise, Lee Todd, who was sent off after two seconds in the English Amateur League, for mocking the referee’s whistle. However, Kalboni’s dismissal may be the fastest in the history of Asian football, with the absence of sufficient statistics to document this matter.
