Twitter goes crazy as Barcelona and Real Madrid play out a 2-2 draw

Another mouth-watering El Clasico before our very eyes and as always another fiery contest between the two giants- Barcelona and Real Madrid.

The match started in typical end-to-end fashion and it was Barcelona who opened the scoring. Luis Suarez found Sergi Roberto in space on the right-flank whose inch perfect cross was met by the Uruguayan himself as he volleyed it into the back of the net.

But Madrid equalised 4 minutes later through Ronaldo who raced ahead of Pique to meet Benzema's headed ball.

Barcelona suffered a setback moments before half-time as Roberto was shown a straight red card after he appeared to slap Marcelo.

10-men Barcelona failed to lie down in the second half and astonishingly took the lead in the 52nd minute through a moment of brilliance form Messi after good work from Suarez.

However, Madrid fought back and equalised in the 72nd minute. Asensio's low cross was connected beautifully by Gareth Bale from outside the box and the ball curved in brilliantly into the back of the net.

And as you can expect, Twitter had a field day!
