Raquel went viral online when a video of her fainting after she was hit by a wayward Leo Messi strike was uploaded onto social media. Interviewed on Spanish radio about the incident, she showed her true colours, confessing: "I'm a Real Madrid fan, I didn't like before, now I like him even less".

Raquel was hit by the Argentine's off-target shot in the first half of the match against Villareal, leaving her dazed and on the verge of fainting.
