19-year-old Maximilian Hofmann has made one of the worst debuts after being sent off for giving away a penalty in the first minute of his first league appearance.
The teenager played for Rapid Vienna against Sturm Graz on Sunday in his first Austria Bundesliga match after being promoted from the club's second team.
Unfortunately for the centre-half, the occasion lasted less than a minute.
Hofmann chopped down Graz forward Robert Berić inside the box in the first attack of the game, and was then shown a straight red card.
After Hofmann trudged off before he could even break a sweat, Nikola Vujadinović converted the early penalty to put Graz 1-0 ahead,
Despite being a goal down and a man down so early, Rapid went on to win 4-2.
