Former Real Madrid defender, Sergio Ramos, scored an own goal to give his old rivals Barcelona victory in La Liga against his boyhood club, Sevilla.

The 2010 FIFA World Cup winner, Ramos, back in Spain with Sevilla after a two-year spell at Paris St-Germain, was playing a record 34th La Liga match against Barcelona.

The 37-year-old settled the game when he shinned 16-year-old, Lamine Yamal’s header across goal and past his own keeper.

Barca deserved the win and Joao Felix smashed a shot off the underside of the crossbar in an open first half.

Barca lost Raphinha to a first-half hamstring injury in the one downside to a result which took them top of La Liga, above neighbours Girona.
