Scroll the time-line to '21:26' as well as y'all tin encounter that the explosion of carmine on the map was caused yesteryear Atlético Madrid's opening goal. Similarly if y'all scroll the time-line to '22:38' y'all tin encounter that Real Madrid's equalizer resulted inwards a huge explosion of Tweets mentioning the team.
