In a high-voltage clash, FC Barcelona beat Sevilla FC by 1-0 to become table-toppers in the ongoing La Liga. A late own goal from Sergio Ramos helped Barcelona get a victory. With this victory, Barcelona are currently sitting atop the table with one extra match played. On the other hand, Sevilla are currently 12th on the table.
Sergio Ramos recently made his return to Sevilla, his childhood club, after leaving Paris Saint-Germain as a free agent. However, his homecoming against Barcelona at the Olimpic Stadium took an unfortunate twist. In the spotlight for all the wrong reasons, Ramos inadvertently contributed to the game’s sole goal and making it worse, it was his own goal. The match took an unexpected turn when Ramos deflected a header from Barcelona’s 16-year-old prodigy, Lamine Yamal, into his own net.
This unexpected turn of events left commentators and fans shocked. Remarkably, Yamal, at just 16 years old, had already etched his name in the club’s history books as the youngest player to make an impact. He not only showcased his skills against Ramos but even found the back of the net for the senior Spanish national team in his short yet promising career.
A unique reunion for Sergio Ramos and Lamine Yamal
Meanwhile, the game also witnessed a unique reunion between Yamal and Ramos. According to some viral social media videos, Ramos met Yamal earlier in his career. In the viral video, Yamal can be seen taking Ramos to the field during a game at Camp Nou. The video is reportedly from 2016 when Yamal was just nine years old. However, this unique reunion didn’t go well with Ramos, as he got the spotlight for all the wrong reasons.
It’s worth noting that FC Barcelona is set to face Porto in the UEFA Champions League 2024. In the group stage match, Barcelona will look to continue their winning run. The match will take place on Thursday, October 5. On the other hand, Sevilla FC will face PSV in a UEFA Champions League group stage game on Wednesday, October 4. Both teams will look to get back on a winning run.

Not pretty to the eyes but very important three points at the end of the day.
Ramos had promised Messi and he just delivered.
