Barcelona were mocked on Thursday night after a bizarre quirk saw Ferran Torres play in a shirt without a Barca badge or a Nike emblem.The weird shirt was highlighted during Barca's 1-1 draw with Napoli in the Europa League round of 32 clash.Despite his unusual kit, Torres was the hero for Barcelona after his penalty on the hour mark was enough to ensure the Catalan giants head into the second leg on level terms.Piotr Zielinski had rifled Napoli into the lead midway through the first half before Torres' intervention from the penalty spot.But Barca's second half fightback wasn't enough to spare them from being ripped apart on social media due to the embarrassing gaffe.One person who spotted the error, tweeted: "Are Barcelona that skint they’ve given Ferran Torres a knock-off kit without a badge or Nike sponsor?"Another quipped: "Gotta cover costs you know times are tough rn", poking fun at Barca's recent financial troubles.One fan went one further by linking Barca's kit mishap to their absence from Europe's premier competition, posting: "the magic of the Europa League".How far do you think Barcelona can go in the Europa League?
