It was always going to happen.
Despite Manchester United's excellent defensive record in the Premier League this season, there was an air of inevitability around Jamie Vardy's strike in the 25th minute which saw him break the Premier League record for goals in consecutive games.
Also inevitable was the twitter erruption, as the social media platform went bonkers for their non-league hero.
Here are the highlights from a very busy day on twitter as Jamie Vardy trends worldwide.
Vardy! He scores when he wants.

What a day: Vardy beats Ruud's record for consecutive goals, and Rooney beats Lineker's record for shit on the pitch.

Leicester fans chanting that Rooney is "just a sh*t Jamie Vardy".
Isn't everyone just a sh*t Jamie Vardy, really?

If Vardy doesn't win the Ballon d'Or this year UEFA is corrupted.

If Vardy had played for Chelsea when Ranieri was manager he would have never played 11 games in a row ?

On this corresponding weekend four years ago, Vardy scored in a 1-1 draw at Gateshead for Fleetwood. In the conference. Now he's worth £30m.

Peter Schmeichel asks Vardy what he was shouting as he celebrated his goal. "I don't think I can repeat it."
