Barcelona poked fun at Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's Manchester United after booking its place in the Champions League semifinals.

Lionel Messi scored a first-half brace as Barca accounted for United 3-0 at Camp Nou on Tuesday, sealing a comprehensive 4-0 aggregate victory.

United fans have adopted the chant "Ole's at the wheel" — the club's version of the Stone Roses hit "Waterfall" after manager Solskjaer sparked a resurgence in Manchester.

However, Barca's social media team trolled the Red Devils with their own version.

Barca tweeted "Messi at the wheel" with a picture of the five-time Ballon d'Or winner on Twitter post-match.

It capped a forgettable night for United, which has lost four consecutive away matches in all competitions for the first time since October 1999.
