Barcelona midfielder Cesc Fabregas has reportedly mistaken the British and Irish Lions for an Irish pop band.
The 26-year-old, who is currently on duty for the Spanish national team at the Confederations Cup in Brazil, was asked a series of questions in an interview with newspaper El Pais.
When asked what are the British and Irish Lions, Fabregas said: "A pop band from Belfast."
The rugby team are preparing for tomorrow's first Test against Australia.
