Somehow, Barca’s social media team managed to include former Real Madrid superstar Ronaldo and Brighton loanee Fati as scorers for Betis in their full-time graphic.
TwitterDID YOU KNOW?
Said post was quickly deleted and a correct one posted in its place, but the mistake did not go unnoticed. Barca did grow accustomed to seeing Ronaldo score against them at one stage, with the Portuguese superstar having netted 20 goals through 34 career appearances against the Catalan giants.

Ronaldo has, however, never played for Betis, and neither has La Masia academy graduate Fati – who is spending the 2023-24 campaign in England. Barca will not care too much about their error if they continue to blow opponents away, with those behind the scenes hoping to lose track of who has been scoring as a flood of goals hit the back of the net.
