If you have been keeping up with the World Cup so far, you’ll know that last night’s Argentina vs Nigeria match was a total nailbiter!

Though Messi scored the first goal of the match, the teams’ performance on a whole was severely lacking, and because of this,

Shahbaz Taseer tweeted a VERY premature tweet of how he expected Messi to retire as he assumed Argentina would lose.

Ouch.

Of course, people tried to warn him to not tweet something so ~controversial~

And Shahbaz himself quickly realized his mistake soon after and immediately tweeted that he might end up deleting the original tweet.

And turns he probably should have deleted the tweet because Argentina ended up winning.

Yikes.

And of course, Messi fans were not about to let Shahbaz live down his mistake.

They wanted to revel in his ‘mistake.’

And more than anything, everyone just wanted Shahbaz to delete his brain fart.

Some people weren’t even bothered with his tweet reminding him of past instances.

But I mean, dozens of people asking you to delete your tweet, talk about embarrassing.

Awkward.
