Not all football fans could book a ticket to watch the FIFA World Cup 2018 in Russia, and for some, catching all the action live on television screens is not possible either. Be it different time zones, or being stuck in office, football fans are finding unique ways to follow the game live. One such crazy football fan asked his girlfriend to give him minute-by-minute update of the opening match of his country. And in return, he got more than he bargained for.

Giving a true picture of player’s state on the field, she wrote, 34 minutes in “everyone’s hair is still holding up well.” ALSO READ | FIFA World Cup 2018: Assam man borrows Rs 15 lakh, builds auditorium to screen matches in front yard In her quirky commentary, she wrote: “This time, an English man received a light tap and fell down violently.” Also later adding, “Tunisian man is on the floo[r]', and what it appeared as if “he got hit in the hair”. With over 14,000 likes, at the time of writing, it's not surprising why it got everyone rooting for her. Although her boyfriend may not have been impressed with her ‘honest’ commentary, who even stopped reading it after a few message, as pointed out by someone for the lack of ‘blue ticks’, Tweeple loved her sassy commentary a lot.
