The bizarre incident happened half an hour into a match at the Benito Villamarin Stadium. Euro 2024 winner Olmo tangled with former Barca defender Marc Bartra. Spanish international Olmo was sent to the grass by a judo-style hip throw.
After hitting the ground, Olmo brought his hands to his mouth. The 26-year-old playmaker realized that a cap was missing from his tooth, leading him to scratch in the grass in an attempt to find the missing piece. He did it properly and handed it over to a guard.
Yamal disconcerted
Yamal was among those left slightly taken aback by the dental incident, with the teenage wonderkid telling Pedri during a half-time exchange in the tunnel: “ There was no bleeding and he pulled out his tooth. There was no blood coming out. But why did you throw it away? » Pedri replied: “He had it in his hand and I said to him: “ Keep it, give it to someone.” »
Barça lost valuable points against Betis. The Catalans conceded the equalizer in added time and are now only two points ahead of their great historic rival, Real Madrid, who have a game in hand.
