Sportpost.com Release World Cup Virals

Chelsea, London (PRWEB) April 15th, 2010 -- With the world cup just around the corner, sports social media site Sportpost.com has got into the spirit by releasing a number of funny videos of alternative world cup moments. The series of four videos are aimed at football fans and have been posted on the Sportpost site and its YouTube channel.

The four animated football videos (http://www.youtube.com/sportpost ) include alternative endings to famous world cup moments including Zinedine Zidane's head butt in the 2006 final; Gazza crying at Italia '90; Maradona's hand of god and Beckham's red card against Argentina. The videos have been created for anyone who has ever wondered what Materazzi really said to Zidane, or how Gary Lineker tried to cheer up Gazza. As the sports world gets geared up for the 2010 World Cup in South Africa, the highly controversial videos are already causing a stir amongst football fans and are proving popular on YouTube as well.

Peter Janes, Sportpost founder and director said, "The World Cup is the greatest show on Earth and as Europe's first sports social media site we felt it was only natural to get involved."

Peter added "Everyone remembers key moments from World Cup history, however we wanted to know what football fans would have wanted to see if those famous moments had turned out differently and so the idea behind our alternative world cup moments were born".
