Edmilson Dove may have been on the receiving end of a red card during Kaizer Chiefs' goalless draw with Moroka Swallows, but the star can still afford to smile.
The 29-year-old received his marching orders in the 47th minute after bringing down opposition attacker Gabadinho Mhango just outside the box as he was through on goal, one-on-one with the goalkeeper.

Chiefs played the rest of the match with a man down but managed to escape with a point. The side are currently sixth on the DStv Premiership table, two points ahead of Stellenbosch FC who have a game in hand.
Subsequently, the defender will miss his side's next two encounters, with one of them being the highly-anticipated Soweto derby set to take place on Saturday.
While things may seem bleak for his life on the field of play, they do not seem as gloomy for him off the pitch.
For one, the player is a physical specimen, suggesting he spends a fair share of his time in the gym because to obtain a physique such as his would be virtually impossible without a good exercise routine and dietary discipline.
He also seems to find solace in his wife Lara Da Graca Dove as the pair are often pictured together, smiling and looking as if they are still in that 'honeymoon phase' of their relationship that appears to be thriving.
Dove also seems to have an interest in fashion as he often displays an immaculate, unbeatable sense of style.
On one occasion, he was spotted looking like a modern-day rockstar as he showed off an all-leather attire that he paired with some rings, glasses, and a boojie bag to complete the look. The more urban-inspired outfits he puts together are also not too shabby.
