Wednesday featured a big one in the EFL Cup as Manchester United played Manchester City in the fourth round. But you didn't have to wait until the game started to see something jaw dropping. The ref Mike Dean decided to sniff his linesman.

Seriously. Take a look.

The only thing that comes to mind is, the assistant told him to check out his new cologne or if the Vicks VapoRub was too strong. Hilarious and weird. But do you want a positive? It's not nearly as bad as Germany's coach.
