WATCH: Referee trips Real Betis player in Barcelona defeat
Monday 21 August 2017 10:40, UK
Not many teams go to the Nou Camp and win - and the majority of those that do need a bit of luck on their side along the way.
If you go there and find the referee tripping your players as you take on Barcelona, you know it's probably not going to be your night.
That's what happened on Sunday when Real Betis went to Catalonia to face Ernesto Valverde's side in their La Liga opener.
With the score still at 0-0 in the first half, Ivan Rakitic tries to come out of defence in the first half but is about to be closed down by Betis midfielder Victor Camarasa.
Cue match referee Trujillo Suarez, who unwittingly treads on Camarasa's foot and sends him tumbling to the ground, leaving Rakitic free to step away and play the ball upfield.
Suarez quickly apologises and Barcelona go on to win 2-0, with Sergio Roberto adding to Alin Tosca's own goal before half-time.
With Lionel Messi hitting the woodwork three times as well, Valverde's side were comfortable victors as they began their quest to get the title back off last season's winners Real Madrid.
Betis will have felt aggrieved at Suarez's intervention - but in reality it had little bearing on the final outcome.
