TWITTER has reacted to Lionel Messi's wondergoal tonight…
Lionel Messi lifts the ball over Manuel Neuer
The Barcelona forward broke the deadlock against Bayern Munich in the Champions League semi-finals first leg with a late goal from outside the box.
But his superb solo effort moments later is what will make the headlines.
The Argentine picked the ball up 30 yards out, skipped past Jerome Boateng with ease and then chipped the ball over the head of goalkeeper Manuel Neuer.
The 27-year-old went on to set up Neymar for his injury-time strike.
And here Express Sport have picked out the best reactions on Twitter to Messi's second strike.
I feel privileged to have been alive for some amazing world phenomenons...Pogs, Pokemon, Tamagotchis. But none have anything on Messi.

Watch it in slow motion and you can see the exact moment when Messi reaches over and takes Boateng's batteries out.

Boateng had a James Milner moment there. So bamboozled by Messi he fell over. Messi magnificent

Messi is so good he got down and tied Boetengs shoe laces together without anybody noticing
