Ronaldo and Messi among new set of Twitter emojis released for El Clasico

The names of three players on either side will generate an emoji of their face when used alongside a hashtag on Twitter.

Twitter has launched a set of emojis ahead of El Clasico as LaLiga giants Real Madrid and Barcelona go head-to-head at the Bernabeu.

Second-placed Barca take on league leaders Real on Sunday knowing a win could take them top of the table, and Twitter has released a set of temporary Clasico-themed emojis for fans to use online to mark the occasion.
