A Twitter user compiled a few hilarious moments from the recently concluded FIFA World Cup 2022 and it is sure to take you on a laughter ride.
The FIFA World Cup 2022 concluded yesterday with Lionel Messi-led Argentina lifting the world cup in a nail-biting match against France, and it was a treat for football fans worldwide. Besides this, there were other incidents during the premiere football event that kept many entertained over its course. Case in point, this Twitter thread that features funny moments from FIFA World Cup 2022. From Antonio Rudiger’s hilarious running to Cristian Romero comically walking up and congratulating Emiliano Martínez with a kick, it highlights adrenaline-filled moments from the football event.
The now-viral thread was made by a Twitter user who goes by the handle @ufcfooty. He started his thread with: “The World Cup officially ends later today. Here’s a thread of some of the funniest moments since it started….”
His first share is a funny TikTok video where a Moroccon fan can be seen saying “Airport, this way!” after the team’s win over Spain. Another is a world cup related-meme that went viral this year.

The following tweet is on ‘Brazil fans doing the Richarlison celebration’. Here, the fans break into ‘pigeon dance’ just like Richarlison, who danced his way out after a sweeping victory over South Korea. In the next tweet, they shared a video of Cristian Romero comically walking up and congratulating Emiliano Martínez with a kick instead of a hug or a pat on his back for his late save against Australia.
