Barcelona's poor run away to Real Sociedad continued when the champions were held to a 1-1 draw at Anoeta on Sunday and slipped six points behind La Liga leaders Real Madrid before next week's 'Clasico' against their arch rivals.
After going behind to Willian’s goal in the 53rd minute, Barcelona somehow equalised in the 59th minute thanks to some brilliant skill by Neymar which set up Messi to sweep home the equaliser.
Barca enjoyed some luck when Sociedad's Juanmi headed home after Carlos Vela had curled a shot off the underside of the bar and saw the goal wrongly ruled offside, while Mexican forward Vela hit the woodwork again late on.
Barca have not won away to Real Sociedad since 2007 although this was the first time in five league games at Anoeta that they had avoided defeat.
Twitter users could not stop trolling and commenting on Barcelona’s lucky draw against Real Sociedad last night. Here are the best tweets from last night’s game:
Seven years is a long time :P
Safe to call Sociedad their bogey team?
Twitter users were wild at the linesman!

Real Madrid will destroy Barcelona if they are not completely different next week
Messi and Ronaldo. The best in the world by a distance.
Where would Barcelona be without Lionel Messi?
