Barcelona took revenge of last season's humiliating 3-0 loss at the hands of Juventus in the quarter-final of the UEFA Champions League by inflicting a 3-0 loss to the Turin giants at the Camp Nou.It was a Lionel Messi show, as the diminutive Argentine scored twice, while also setting up Ivan Rakitic's goal. It was the first time that Messi had managed to score past Gianluigi Buffon and as such, was a special night for the 30-year-old.Twitter, as you would expect, didn't hold back from showering praise on the 5-time Ballon d'Or winner. Here are the best tweets:The wait is over...1 - Lionel Messi has scored his first goal against Gianluigi Buffon, with his first touch in the opposition box of the game.
