Everyone’s making the same joke as Javier Mascherano *finally* scores for Barcelona

Homesport

Javier Mascherano is a man that's waited a long time for his first Barcelona goal.

Nearly seven years and 319 appearances on from his switch to the Camp Nou from Liverpool, the Argentine midfielder / defender finally rediscovered his scoring touch in the game with Osasuna on Wednesday evening. Suarez was tripped on the edge of the box, and up stepped the 32-year-old to thunder home from the penalty spot, closing in on Lionel Messi's club scoring record. https://twitter.com/DataDeportes/status/857314325362597889 The sight of Mascherano firing home his first Barca goal was inevitably enough for him to make a few waves on social media. And, because football fans are oh-so-bloody-predictable it was also enough for almost every other person with access to a Twitter account to crack the same joke. https://twitter.com/CesarKareem/status/857312492162306048 https://twitter.com/Isho16/status/857311707944845313 https://twitter.com/MimHasib/status/857309984459177984 https://twitter.com/sepkesh/status/857309709623316480 https://twitter.com/Mister_Mudau/status/857308953532870660 https://twitter.com/anblz1/status/857308718140182528 https://twitter.com/OMDitsMe/status/857315524539297792 Nice knowing you all...
