So with all the hype around the World Cup and besides my football-mad family, it seems that Twitter has taken a likeness to all the World Cup craziness which has been happening of late.
So with all the hype around the World Cup and besides my football-mad family, it seems that Twitter has taken a likeness to all the World Cup craziness which has been happening of late.
So it comes that TV channels ITV and the BBC have been sharing the football games, and competing against each other when it comes to how many fans they can get on board to celebrate the goals.
ITV took to Twitter and created the #GoalFace to be used whenever a player of your favourite team scores a goal. Most of you England supporters used this hash tag to your advantage, and tweeted #GoalFace to your heart’s content as shown on the ITV’s best of #GoalFace website.
Here were our favourites at Kettle Magazine:

Whereas some cheeky Twitter users out there took the Twitter-mick and turned this #GoalFace into something twisted, yet very funny.

Though England may have not started off with a win, it does cheer us football fans up and give us something to laugh about. I just hope with all this tweeting that we are still paying attention to the important game at hand. We wouldn’t want you to miss a goal just because you were attempting your best goal face.
