trending No “Rob Green”…………..although I’m sure he’d made an appearance shortly after miss.

Checking out the Tweets related to David’s expression, there were a couple of photos circulating showing him disconsolate.

One just with David:Beckham And the other showing Barack Obama unable to contain his delight:

Obama Whether the Obama pic is a fake or not, I don’t know.

But it does go to show that visuals/photos can spread like wildfire on Twitter if they’ve scored a critical hit.
