BBC Sport’s shutdown of a guy fed up with women’s football totally hit the back of the net
People enjoyed BBC Sport’s shutdown of a guy who asked them to stop tweeting about women’s football. Well, maybe not stop tweeting about it, just give them a Twitter feed all of their own.
Here’s the original BBC Sport tweet about Arsenal’s record-breaking Dutch striker, Vivianne Miedema.
This guy wasn’t happy, though.
And BBC Sport’s winning response.
BBC Sport shoots … BBC Sport scores!
And here are just some of the things people were saying about it.
I’ve never been more proud of anyone in my life. Well done BBC Sport. Treat yourself to a non specific brand of sweet

This might be the best thing the BBC Sport account has ever tweeted. And it won’t be topped. pic.twitter.com/U4rICQZFz1

That has to be a red card, murder isn’t allowed in football

Any chance BBC can create a separate burn thread so I can follow it?

And just in case anyone still needed help …
For sports fans who just don’t get it. Try this exercise: refer to men’s sports as men’s sports and women’s sports as sports… https://t.co/roO5Giw10L pic.twitter.com/LegbFtGqwA
