Of course, Twitter wanted to heap abuse on the hapless defender. That’s what Twitter does.

However, instead of tweeting @12MarceloV, many chose to hurl insults at an English model who happens to occupy the handle @Marcello.

Some were genuinely amazed at the player’s power to tweet (and in English!) while also playing on the pitch.

Eventually, Marcello (the model guy) was forced to issue a public service announcement.
