"Looks very prehistoric," wrote one user. "the deep sea is another planet down there. wild looking creatures," added another.

A third user suggested that it wasn't a real shark at all. "Man made.. either a sculptor or mixing of DNA with the assistance of the crisper," wrote the user. A fourth jokingly commented, "Looks really happy he's just had his braces off so is accentuating the gums and teeth."

Several other people also commented that the shark appeared to be a "cookie-cutter" shark - a small cigar-shaped shark with a bulbous snout and distinctive lips.

Xavi was punished for his touchline behaviour during Sunday's 0-0 draw at Getafe, in which Barcelona winger Raphinha also received a red card in the first half for elbowing an opponent.
