Bale's horror miss drew the ire of Real Madrid supporters on social media after the game
It meant the game ended 1-1 at the Nou Camp, with Real missing a massive chance to take an advantage back to the Bernabeu
Frustrated Real fans turned their ire towards Bale after his miss, with the forward having replaced teenage sensation Vinicius Junior for the final 26 minutes of the game.
Supporters on Twitter suggested Vinicius would have certainly scored that chance, with Bale - who cost Real a then-world record £85million when he signed in 2013 - as yesterday's man.
Real Madrid fans pointed to Bale's injury record - the Welshman recently missed three weeks

Some feel Bale - who cost Real a then-world record £85million in 2013 - is yesterday's man
It meant the game ended 1-1 at the Nou Camp, to the anguish of Madrid supporters on Twitter
Others pointed to Bale's unfortunate recent injury record - the Welshman recently missed three weeks and six games with a calf injury, and has endured a litany of other knocks and absences in his time in Spain.
In the game itself, it was another young Real forward, Lucas Vazquez, who opened the scoring as Bale watched from the bench.
However Malcom netted Barca's equaliser, meaning there is everything to play for in the second leg as the two great Spanish rivals seek domestic silverware.
