Major League Soccer based Ghanaian forward Kofi Opare was sent for his DC United side in a 3-0 defeat at Philadelphia Union.
The Ghanaian born American international accumulated two yellow cards to hands his opponent numerical advantage and the three contested points at stake in a 3-0 win for Philadelphia.
Opare followed up his first half caution with another booking on the 65th minute to mark his return to the domestic championship.
The 26 year old enjoyed a near perfect start to the game but his mistimed tackle on Roland Alberg inside the box cost him a penalty and his first yellow card.
The center back then saw his game worsened midway through the second half of the game with another caution.
Compatriot Charles Sarpong however extended his explosive form in the MLS with another cheeky assist to Ilsinho for the second goal of the night.
Philadelphia returned to the second slot in the division and trails NYCFC by a solitary point after 19 rounds of fixtures each.
