Twitter records smashed in Brazil
Sunday's World Cup final generated a record number of tweets a minute as the final whistle went, Twitter said.
According to Twitter, a total of 618,725 tweets a minute were registered after Germany scored the winning goal in extra time to defeat Argentina 1-0.
That beat the 580,000 tweets a minute generated during host Brazil's humiliating 7-1 thrashing at the hands of Germany last week.
However, the overall number of tweets during the the final was 32.1m, fewer than the 35.6m posts during the Brazil-Germany semi-final.
Facebook said Sunday's final was also the most talked about sporting event on Facebook, with a total of 280m interactions by 88m users, including comments, likes and posts.
