Let’s hope their semi-final games are infinitely more interesting.
Barcelona and Bayern Munich play each other in the Champions League semi-final first leg on Wednesday.
In the time honoured [circa 2013] tradition, the Twitter accounts have been engaging in light-hearted bantz ahead of the game.
We’re looking forward to playing you @FCBarcelona. Are you ready for some of this? #FCBFCB https://t.co/2LUkDHq37Q
