Salford City goalkeeper Max Crocombe sent off for URINATING during non-league clash against Bradford Park Avenue
The club - part-owned by Class of 92 stars Phil Neville, Gary Neville, Paul Scholes, Nicky Butt and Ryan Giggs - ended up winning 2-1 in the Vanarama National League North match-up
SALFORD CITY goalkeeper Max Crocombe was shown a red card for URINATING during the 2-1 win against Bradford Park Avenue - and has since been reported to the police.
The bizarre incident happened in the closing stages of a Vanarama National League North clash at Horsfall Stadium, putting a dampener on the Class of 92's side's victory.
There was confusion over why the shot-stopper was given his marching orders by the referee, with both clubs taking to Twitter.
Bradford Park tweeted: "86' - RED CARD! This is bizarre. Salford goalkeeper Max Crocombe has been dismissed and no one knows why..."
While Salford said: "88: Red Card! Crocombe see red for something off the ball. No one has a clue what has happened. 1-2."
But in a follow up message, Bradford Park revealed the true reason why he was sent off, as they said: "87' - We can confirm that Crocombe has been sent off for urinating during the game. We are not joking. #greenarmy (1-2)."
Crocombe later apologised for his act and said he had been in a "very uncomfortable position".
The keeper posted a screenshot of his apology on Twitter.

"I was in a very uncomfortable position and made an error in judgement which spoiled a great win.
"My intention was never to offend anyone and I'd like to apologise to both clubs and both sets of supporters and it won't happen again."
On top of that it was reported that one supporter among the 533-strong crowd reported Crocombe to police.
The 24-year-old only joined Salford City back in May, and will now face a suspension for the act.
Crocombe has represented New Zealand on ten occasions in their their youth sides.
His past clubs include Oxford United, Barnet and Carlisle United.
