VIDEO: West Brom's Claudio Yacob sent off vs. Chelsea for two-footed, jumping tackle

It's going from bad to worse for West Brom at Stamford Bridge.

Already trailing 2-0 in the opening half against the league leaders, the Baggies have been reduced to ten men after a moment of madness from Claudio Yacob.

The Argentine was sent to an early shower for this ridiculous tackle on Diego Costa in the 29th minute:

It's not surprising, given his penchant for engaging in physical battles and his all-around curmudgeonly nature, that an opposing player would put some added force into a tackle against Costa, but that was flat-out crazy.

Despite making contact with the ball, you simply can't expect for that to pass as an acceptable tackle.
