Every football match is a social media event, but the Nigeria-Bosnia match was intense! After an amazing performance by Ghana against Germany, Africa had hope again, and Nigeria didn’t disappoint! Anyway, today, we have a compilation of some of the craziest tweets from during and after the match. They were too many but you know we had to pick some of the best. If you think we’ve missed any awesome ones, let us know!
Everyone got in on the action
From our in-law
Nigeria!
