During sunrise and sunset, the rays have to travel a larger part of the atmosphere because they are very close to the horizon. Therefore, light other than red is mostly scattered away. Most of the red light, which is the least scattered, enters our eyes. Hence, the sun and the sky appear red.

the sun looks red during early morning and delayed sunset as because the distance between the earth and the sun is the most. so the longer wavelength i.e. the red colour reaches our eyes and all the other colours are scattered by it.
