WATCH: Basketball Coach Tries To Give Referee Glasses After Missed Call

A college basketball coach in the Phillippines was tossed from a game after trying to help the referee see things a little more clearly.

Arguing that referees should have called a foul, De La Salle University coach Aldin Ayo took a pair of glasses from one of his assistants and tried putting them on the referee. That referee tossed him from Wednesday's game against the UE Red Warriors.

ABS-CBN News says it's not the first time this has happened. When he coached Colegio de San Juan de Letran, he did the same thing, all the way down to borrowing glasses from an assistant coach.

The coach reportedly had nothing to say after the game. But his team went on to win 84-78.
