Roma substitute Simone Perrotta managed to get himself sent-off before setting foot on the pitch against Serie A champions Inter Milan.
The Italian international was shown the red-card for dissent, having said something unsavoury to the fourth official, whilst waiting to enter the action.
As Perrotta had not actually replaced a team-mate at the time of his ejection, Roma were able to continue with eleven men and eventually won the Italian Super Cup.
