3. Real Sociedad 2-2 Real Madrid, La Liga, Nov. 27, 2005

4. Real Madrid 3-3 Villarreal, La Liga, May 7, 2006

Zidane's last game for Madrid saw Ramos shown a straight red for using a hand to block a goalbound shot, a decision the Bernabeu hierarchy managed to get overturned on appeal.

7. Recreativo de Huelva 2-3 Real Madrid, La Liga, March 1, 2008

8. Real Mallorca 1-1 Real Madrid, La Liga, April 5, 2008

11. Ajax 0-4 Real Madrid, Champions League, Nov. 23, 2010

A "clever" second yellow for throwing the ball away late on with Jose Mourinho's team already through to the round of 16 and a meaningless final group game still to come, which backfired when UEFA saw what he was trying to do.

12. Barcelona 5-0 Real Madrid, La Liga, Nov. 29, 2010

With his team already humiliated at the Camp Nou, Ramos' scything tackle on David Villa was followed by going through Lionel Messi from behind in added time, before he tussled with Carles Puyol and Xavi Hernandez on his way to the tunnel.

13. Barcelona 2-2 Real Madrid, Copa del Rey, Jan. 25, 2012

14. Villarreal 1-1 Real Madrid, La Liga, March 21, 2012

A chest high tackle on Nilmar, having already been booked, on a night when Mourinho was sent off for allegedly insulting the referee's mother, and Mesut Ozil and fitness coach Rui Faria also saw red.

15. Real Madrid 4-0 Celta Vigo, Copa del Rey, Jan. 2, 2013

With Madrid already easing through to the next round, Ramos kicked out at Celta midfielder Augusto Fernandez, and picked up a five-game ban after calling the match official "shameless" for having "spent the whole game f---ing us."

16. Real Madrid 2-0 Rayo Vallecano, La Liga, Feb. 17, 2013

Within just 18 minutes, Ramos had headed his team 2-0 ahead and been sent off for two quick yellow cards -- the second harshly awarded for handball.

17. Real Madrid 4-1 Galatasaray, Champions League, Nov. 27, 2013

Scottish referee Willie Collum saw a professional foul on Galatasaray attacker Umut Bulut with the score at 0-0, again one of the more debatable reds of his career.

18 - Osasuna 2-2 Real Madrid, La Liga, Dec. 14, 2013

His team managed to come from 2-0 down after Ramos was again booked twice -- although Madrid got the first yellow overturned on appeal

19. Real Madrid 3-4 Barcelona, La Liga, March 23, 2014

20. Las Palmas 1-2 Real Madrid, La Liga, March 13, 2016

A two year red-card drought was ended as Ramos picked up a needless second yellow for a tackle from behind on midfielder Momo.

21. Barcelona 1-2 Real Madrid, La Liga, April 2, 2016

Freshly returned from suspension, Ramos got a fourth Clasico red for an ugly foul on Luis Suarez at 1-1 late on, but Cristiano Ronaldo still had time to hit a winner.

Another straight red for a lunge at Messi, who then punished the discretion by hitting a late winner for a result which almost cost Zidane's side the La Liga title.

23. Deportivo 0-3 Real Madrid, La Liga, Aug. 20, 2017 La Liga's opening day brought Ramos' first red of 2017-18, with yet another second yellow coming with the game almost up, in an aerial challenge with Deportivo's Borja Valle.

24. Athletic Bilbao 0-0 Real Madrid, La Liga, Dec. 2, 2017

Playing with a mask on his broken nose, Ramos was perhaps extra eager to defend himself, and both yellows were for raising his arm when jumping for headers against Athletic's Raul Garcia and Aritz Aduriz.
