Mike Dean has become the first referee in Premier League history to brandish 100 red cards.
The iconic official dismissed Ashley Young midway through the second-half of Manchester United’s 2-1 defeat to Wolves at Molineux on Tuesday night.
The 50-year-old was given no choice following the defender’s rash challenge on Diogo Jota, which was deemed worthy of a second yellow card.
Dean also hit double figures for this campaign after giving Young his marching orders.
It was his tenth dismissal in just 24 matches, almost double his closest competitor Michael Oliver, who has shown six red cards this term.
MIKE DEAN IN NUMBERS
– Dean’s first Premier League red card was dished out to Newcastle’s Nolberto Solano in their 1-0 defeat to Ipswich in April 2001
– His 100th red card was handed out to Ashley Young for a second yellow card in Manchester United’s 2-1 defeat at Wolves on Tuesday night
– Dean has sent five players off twice: Andy Cole (Fulham and Man City), Fernando Torres (Chelsea), Laurent Koscielny (Arsenal), Mike Williamson (Newcastle) and Richard Dunne (Manchester City)
– The teams with the most dismissals are Chelsea and Manchester City, with nine red cards a piece
– Elsewhere, Newcastle have 7, Arsenal 6, Stoke, Spurs and West Brom 5
– Dean has shown two red cards in 12 different league games, and has twice shown three red cards in one match:
*West Brom 1-1 Fulham (Diop, Clement, Cole) Sep 2004
*Man City 1-2 Spurs (Fernandes, Dunne, Assou-Ekotto) Nov 2008
– In total, Dean has sent 94 players from 33 different teams for an early bath.
– 51 of his century were straight reds, 49 were for second yellows
– The 2018-19 campaign has been his busiest season yet, with 10 dismissals.
– Dean sent off nine players in 2007-2008 and 2015-16.
– Aside from his first two seasons, 2010-2011 saw his lowest total with two.

Dean has been one of the Premier League’s most recognisable figures since the early 2000s – and he is miles ahead in the all-time red card race, with no other official reaching 60 yet.
While his career has been laden with controversy, he enjoyed a relatively quiet night on Tuesday as Wolves dealt a huge blow to Man United’s top-four hopes.
Scott McTominay put the Red Devils in front with his first United goal, however their lead was quickly cancelled out by Jota following a mistake by Fred.
And Wolves completed their comeback victory thanks to an own-goal by Chris Smalling.
