Ruben Castro has a face which bears the wrinkles of a tough 35 years on earth, but a right foot that can be out of this world.
The Real Betis favourite expertly drilled a ball into the top corner against Barcelona on 21 minutes, briefly drawing the Andalusians level with their illustrious opponent.
An accurate 20-yard finish from Lionel Messi and neat prod home by Luis Suarez gave the host a 3-1 advantage at the break.
