Barcelona recorded one of the most dramatic victories in recent Champions League history and it led to Micah Richards suffering a wardrobe malfunction live on CBS Sports.

The Blaugrana beat Benfica 5-4 in a thrilling game at the Estadio da Luz, with Raphinha scoring a controversial winner at the very death.

At one point Hansi Flick's side were 3-1 and 4-2 down in the game, but staged a remarkable late fight-back - with Robert Lewandowski scoring a second penalty before Eric Garcia levelled matters in the 86th minute.

Then, in the 96th minute, Raphinha bagged his second and Barca's fifth with virtually the last kick of the game as he raced away on the counter attack to slot home past Anatoliy Trubin.

Benfica were furious that they were not awarded a penalty in the build-up when Leandro Barreiro appeared to be fouled in the area prior to Raphinha scoring, and had unused substitute Arthur Cabral sent off for his reaction.

In the CBS Sports studio, the panel went crazy over the last-gasp goal - with Jamie Carragher screaming in disbelief.

Richards, however, got so excited that he stood up and amid the chaotic scenes, the button on his blazer popped off in a hilarious moment.

The panel were in hysterics as they watched it back, with Richards joking, "I had too much to eat didn't I!" and calling it a "very big problem".


The former Manchester City man had been scolded by Carragher earlier on for changing up his haircut and then was unable to button up his suit jacket.

Tempers flared after Benfica-Barcelona

After things got heated on the pitch, it's claimed that it all kicked off in the tunnel between the two sets of players.

According to Movistar, a huge fight ensued and on-site police were forced to intervene.

While there are not too many details on what brought about the altercation, it's said that Raphinha had to be separated from Benfica players in the scuffle.

With their late show, Barcelona secured automatic qualification for the knockout stages after taking 18 points from seven games.

Their only loss was an opening defeat to Monaco back in September and they have accrued maximum points since then.

The Catalan outfit return to action on Sunday when they host struggling Valencia in La Liga.
