Barcelona were 1-0 down away to Real Betis, courtesy of a first-half strike by Borja Iglesias, when coach Ronald Koeman sent Lionel Messi into the fray. It took the brillian Argentinian just one minute to set the score level, and his team went on to win by 2-3.

It has to be said that a player like Messi simply cannot be allowed that amount of space on the edge of the box.
