Translation wrong

Ma D.B2Kwiziq community member

I saw this in one of my progress tests:
Ella no cree que vosotros ________ eso por ella.She doesn't believe you did that for her.
The correct answer is "Ella no cree que vosotros hiciereis eso por ella." I understand this is the future simple subjunctive. Is the translation wrong? i.e. should it be, 'She doesn't think you will do that for her?'

This question relates to:Spanish lesson "Using the Spanish subjunctive with negative opinion phrases"

Hola Ma

"hicierais" is the imperfect subjunctive of hacer (for vosotros). It is referring to a past action "that you did...)
