After being tripped by the centre-back, Olmo fell to the ground, accidentally headbutting the back of his ankle on the way down.

He lost a tooth as a result and immediately began searching for it on the grass.

Luckily, the Spaniard was able to find it relatively quickly.

Visibly frustrated, Olmo appeared to briefly complain to the referee before playing on.

The match ended 2-2 following a dramatic late equaliser from Betis super-sub Assane Diao.

Robert Lewandowski opened the scoring for Barcelona just before half-time with a tap-in from the edge of the six-yard box.

Former Tottenham star Giovani Lo Celso then equalised from the penalty spot, but Ferran Torres restored the visitors’ lead with just under 10 minutes left to play.

In the final stages of injury time, Diao equalised with a stunning flick into the bottom-left corner.
