Currently I see it is only at EZE, but this little error caused me to send a duplicate message over the frequency and confused me. May be the issue same in some other airports?

It’s been an issue in every airport. Happens sometimes. The atc box and the map info doesn’t line immediately.
Likely not enough satellite imagery on that.

Hey there, this is a lot more common than you’d think. Always check the winds, which can be viewed through several means: HUD, live cockpit (if available), status bar if set to winds, airport information/metar, etc. However, I believe that the ATC colors are always the correct ones, while the map might differ slightly or be delayed in updating. However, I’d always check an outside source if you’re flying from a busy airport and there’s no ATC. Many airports around the world don’t just use whichever runway has the best winds. Denver and LAX are two that I know often have poor wind condition landings because it’s easier than changing the patterns for every other aircraft.
I personally just follow the runway simbrief gives me unless ATC assigns me a different runway, or if traffic is clearly using another runway
