Anguilla player's dreadlocks lead to two expulsions in Nations League

Aedan Scipio, a player from Anguilla, was at the center of an unusual scene during a Concacaf Nations League match against Antigua and Barbuda, according to Foot Mercato. His very long dreadlocks, which reportedly reach down to his calves, led to the expulsion of two opposing players who pulled his hair, as reported by Le Parisien.

The match saw two Antigua and Barbuda players sent off after pulling Scipio's hair, according to L'Équipe. CNews reports that Scipio's entry into the game was highly noticeable, and the incident has been widely shared on video. The story is likely to bring a smile to many, notes Foot Mercato. Anguilla is a small British Overseas Territory in the Caribbean, as CNews reminds us.
