Barcelona appeared to mock Manchester United and the Premier League on Twitter just seconds after scoring at Old Trafford.
Robert Lewandowski broke the deadlock from the penalty spot in the second leg of their Europa League knockout play-off match on Tuesday, slotting past David de Gea after a staggered run that drew criticism from fans on social media.
Minutes after the ball hit the back of the net, following the Barcelona players' celebrating in front of their fans and the game resuming, the LaLiga club's official Twitter account took the opportunity to run salt in the wounds of the United supporters.
Alongside a picture of former Bayern Munich striker Lewandowski mocked up as a farmer while picking footballs from a tree, read the caption: "Working in the field:"
Fans responded to the tweet by pointing out the joke, which suggests that the Premier League is a lesser competition to LaLIga and the other top-flight divisions in Europe.
Man United drew 2-2 with Barcelona in the first leg of their Europa League clash at the Camp Nou.
Former Chelsea defender Marcos Alonso opened the scoring for Barca before Marcus Rashford hit back to level the scores just two minutes later. United then led via a Jules Kounde own goal but there was a final sting in the tail for the Red Devils.
Levelling the scores 15 minutes before the end, former Leeds forward Raphinha found the back of the net to set up a tantalising second leg at Old Trafford.
After of Thursday's match, United boss Erik ten Hag said: "With such big teams as Barcelona every day you have to show your best. Tomorrow we have to give the best performance of the season. We believe in it, we’re looking forward to it, so we have to give a lot of energy."
He added: "We all want to play big games. When we were young we dreamt of it. We are in the position, it's February. Big games are coming up and we enjoy it, we're really excited and we have to give our best."
