When an image of Santa Claus appeared on the electronic advertising board against RB Leipzig earlier this week, Thiago Alcantara mistakenly passed the ball to the graphic instead of his own teammate. Classic.
It isn't the first time this has happened. A few months ago, Peterborough player Michael Bostwick went viral when he mistook a steward for a teammate and passed the ball straight out of player when his team were comfortable in possession.
The hilarious clip did the rounds on social media and many people trolled the midfielder for his mistake - Now the brilliant Bayern Munich Twitter team have trolled the Spanish international with a rather funny picture.

If you didn't manage to come across the clip of Thiago, here it is again for your viewing pleasure:
Bayern managed to secure an important 3-0 win over their German rivals, with goals from Thiago, Xabi Alonso and Robert Lewandowski giving them a three point lead at the top of the Bundesliga ladder.

Brilliant from Bayern.
