An underdog English soccer team has captured the hearts of Twitter users.
Leicester City, whose mascot is the Foxes, became the champions of England’s Premier League following a draw between Tottenham and Chelsea on Monday. The news caused a 86% spike in Twitter (TWTR) activity in the United Kingdom, Twitter said.
English soccer fans have become accustomed over the years to seeing wealthy teams like Chelsea, Manchester United, and Arsenal dominate the Premier League. Many sports fans saw this year’s rise of Leicester City as the soccer equivalent of the fictional Bad News Bears, although in the movies, the lovable losers didn’t win the championship.
