Early Leeds goal produces moment of Twitter comedy gold

If you’re going to livetweet a football match, best make sure you get to your seat on time.

Whoever runs Ipswich Town’s Twitter account learned this lesson the hard way as the club conceded early against Leeds United on Tuesday night.

Striker Souleymane Doukara’s opener just a minute into the match came so soon after the opening whistle that the person running the club’s Twitter account for the game missed it completely.

Rather than trying to disguise the fact that they didn’t see it, they simply owned up to their error.

GOAL: Town behind within the first 60 seconds as Doukara finds the net. I wasn't in my seat so no idea what happened, sorry #itfc
