Rugby referee sends player off for lifting him up in wild celebration; watch video

In a bizarre incident, a rugby player was sent off for lifting the referee in the air while celebrating. The incident took place in a French Rugby D2 clash, where Nevers were leading 30-25 in the closing stage of the contest. 

Josaia Raisuqe was the player involved in the act, after match official Laurent Millotte made a decision in Nerver's favour. Right after the decision was made, Raisuqe was seen dancing in the pitch before he went to lift the official. 

Here is a video of the incident:

The referee didn't expect the celebration to take this turn as Millotte was seen kicking and flailing his legs in fair. After regaining his feet on the pitch, Millotte took a few seconds to regain his compsure.

What followed next was Millotte reaching for his pockets and showing Raisque a straight red card, who was shocked at the decision.
