Fernando Torres showed Japan his dark side in his latest appearance for Sagan Tosu as he lost his rag and flew into a challenge that cost him a yellow card.

The Spaniard is widely considered to be one of the most likeable players in the world of football, but he showed J-League fans that even he has a bit of an edge to him on Sunday.

The former Liverpool and Atletico Madrid man lost his head in the first half and flew into a rash tackle on his man, resulting in a yellow card.

Not content with his day's work, the veteran later went head-to-head with an opponent as he risked being given his marching orders.

There was to be a happy ending for the Fuenlabrada-born star though as his side claimed a narrow victory over V-Varen Nagasaki.
