Twitter slams referee after FC Barcelona down ten-man Atletico Madrid in the Champions League

It was a tale of two ex-Liverpool strikers as Fernando Torres scored and got sent off for Atletico Madrid while Luis Suarez proved to be the match-winner for Barcelona.

 

Atletico Madrid threatened to cause an upset at the Camp Nou on Tuesday, but were undone by the sending off of Fernando Torres and the subsequent Barcelona goals scored by Luis Suarez. A 2-1 result from the highly entertaining match means that Barca go into the second leg of the quarter-finals with a slender advantage.

Check out the best tweets about the game below, starting with everybody’s favourite presidential candidate.

Torres and Suarez were unsurprisingly the centre of attention during the game on social media.

Twitter also had its say on the referee’s controversial decision to send off Fernando Torres in the first half.

However, one Barcelona fan in particular was tired of the excuses from Barcelona’s detractors following the result.
