Sevilla striker Wissan Ben Yedder took to Twitter after his side’s 4-2 defeat to Sevilla to pay tribute to Lionel Messi.
The Barcelona captain produced a brilliant hat-trick to win the match for the visitors, and Ben Yedder explained how they would probably have won otherwise.
En este mundo, quizas hubieramos ganado este partido... pero hay un jugador de otro planeta que lo quería de otra manera. Orgullosos del equipo, nunca nos rendimos. Vamos Sevilla ❤️ pic.twitter.com/Gcwxj8pzcX

He wrote: “In this world, perhaps we would have won the game. But there was a player from another planet who wanted it another way...”
It’s a nice touch from Ben Yedder on what must have been a really tough defeat for Sevilla.
They twice took the lead against Barcelona but ended up slipping to yet another defeat.
