Just 14s! Bissouma picks up fastest Premier League yellow card EVER
History was made at the Etihad Stadium tonight as Yves Bissouma received the fastest yellow card in Premier League history.
The Spurs midfielder went into John Brooks' book for a swipe at Man City's Phil Foden after just 14 seconds.
His caution eclipsed Sadio Mane's previous record of 15 seconds, which the Liverpool winger grabbed in a 2-2 draw against Chelsea in 2022.
The list of the five fastest bookings in Premier League history is completed by: Scott McTominay (24 seconds for Man United in 2019); Liam Cooper (25 seconds for Leeds United in 2021) and Stephen Warnock (26 seconds for Blackburn in 2009).
After the opening whistle blew, Bissouma already missed the chance to break Keith Gillespie's record by receiving the fastest ever red card in the Premier League.
Before kick-off, the former Sheffield United man elbowed Stephen Hunt twice in the face, directly in view of the linesman.
The referee sent Gillespie off the field after zero seconds of action in what is considered one of the most bizarre moments in football history.
Bissouma's booking was his third in the competition this season, putting him two games away from a one-match suspension.
Premier League rules state that if a player receives five yellow cards in the first 19 games of the season, he will be suspended for one match.
And if they are booked five more times in the 32nd game of the season, they will receive a two-match ban.
