VIDEO: Barcelona reduced to 10 men vs. Espanyol following Jordi Alba's outburst
Albert Gea / REUlTERS
Although they'll likely come away with the victory, Jordi Alba's second-half tantrum made the assignment a little tougher for Barcelona during their Catalan derby against Espanyol.
Alba was sent off in the second half with his team up 2-0 after the Spanish international lost his cool.
The right back was clearly ticked off when he conceded a free kick, but just couldn't let it go and continued to bark at the match official, leading to a yellow.
Alba continued his tirade, which apparently included some nasty words, and he was subsequently sent off.
