Tweet my Goal! The funniest comments from Real Madrid and Barcelona's Champions League semi-final

A moment of Messi magic was one of the few highlights of a cranky Clasico Champions League semi-final. You can read Darren Lewis' match report from the Bernabeu here .

These, however, are the funniest Tweets on the game from our @MirrorFootball feed :

@MirrorFootball: BREAKING NEWS! Sergio Ramos has agreed to sign for Arsenal. He doesn't ever want to be in position where he could damage a trophy again
@LukaCarragher: last week called. It wants it's joke back

***
@MirrorFootball: For all those that have watched El Classicos in the past and thought, This is good, but I wish Andy Townsend was commentating... #luckynight

***
@MirrorFootball: Who would win in a game between this season's Aston Villa and David Villa? We're going for a draw. 1-1.
@AverageCynic: I think Ricky Villa would still fancy his chances against aston villa.
@jbfeelsgood: I think a Spanish villa would give them a good game.
@whereswalters1: What about Antonio Valencia against Valencia FC? 2-2

***

@SnowyAllcroft: I wonder when this game will Pique up
@keggers04: it could get messi
@anjali_x: 18mins in and already doing the play on words? You're Xavin a laugh!
@MirrorFootball: Barca will need a Pep talk at half-time
@GomezGooner: Mourinho will be very xabi that his team have managed to contain Barcelona so far.
@hairandglasses: barca just need to Keita to their style of play
@curtis1604: Nothing Masch to get excited about so far.
@YoungGunsBlog: Mama Di-Maria. These are awful!
@R_GOONER: Barca so in control it'll soon be Pedro-ver
@23nickc: when villa this game get a goal!?
@mr_omnibus: this game is very Alonso-so thus far.

@GuillenNogara: Maybe it will change in the Lass minutes
@Jrobzzzz : this game is an absolute Adebay-born
@DanSumner85: got my mate Ron round but he's building shelves while the match is on... 'sit down Ron,-al-do it when the game finishes'
@zulushark: Javier seen a more boring match?
@adamlufc5: Afellay-sleep watching this load of rubbish!
@charliebsp: all just seems to be a bit messi at the moment, need to carv a la hole in reals defence

@snivler311: This game is looking bl-ilker by the minute
@Swin9: do you think we'll have a goal before the birds are ini-there-nesta's

***

***
@MirrorFootball: Peter Drury: 'The game has really come to life in last 15 mins.' What, a load of diving and one shot on target? Best La Liga in the world...
@Ste_Doughty: I wouldn't say this game is full of blatant diving but Tom Daley is warming up on the touchline
@ArsenalGent: I wouldn't say this game is full of blatant diving but Monsieur COUSTEAU is removing his Track-Suit.

***
@MirrorFootball: Wish we were watching in 3D - probably feels like there's someone waving an imaginary yellow card IN YOUR LIVING ROOM!

***
@MirrorFootball: Not saying Real-Barcelone is an anti-climax, but does anyone have a stream for Fulham-Bolton? #ElCrappico

***
@MirrorFootball: Barcelona's reserve keeper Pinto has been sent off for fighting. Ref also tried to send Ozil off for daring to have a shot in 1st half
@BobtheRed1: Who'd have thought Pinto would have been the busier of the keepers in the ground tonight at HT?

***
@MirrorFootball: Think Real Madrid have mis-interpreted Jose's tactics. He asked them to park the bus, but they've narked the Busquets instead
@AverageCynic: Madrid have had 29% possession. There's a bloke sat in row N behind the Madrid goal who's seen more of the ball than them.

***
@MirrorFootball: And there's the customary El Classico red card. Ref convinced by Barca delegation. This is more a meeting of the debating society than a football match
@Goonersk:   Not seen this much aggro in Spain since Franco was in charge.
@MirrorFootball: Jose Mourinho sent off now. Am hoping they'll dismiss me as well soon.
@mjdo27: free the special one..... one

***
@MirrorFootball: To paraphrase Mark Twain: I went to a dirty cheats convention and a game of football almost broke out!

***
@MirrorFootball: If Jose Mourinho is the Special One for masterminding this, what does that make Tony Pulis? God?

***
@MirrorFootball: GOAL! Real Madrid 0-2 Barcelona - Lionel Messi goal that - almost - makes up for everything that went before
@KixSports: Barcelona! More passes than a whole series of mastermind.
@etahpilac: Can we look at Messi's birth certificate to see if he was born in Planet Earth.

***
@MirrorFootball: UEFA have locked everyone in their dressing rooms! #FreetheSpecialOneone

***
@MirrorFootball: What Fergie has learned from tonight's scouting trip: 'if I kick off in the stadium then I don't have to talk to the media afterwards...'
