Dutch FA congratulates persistent Mexican fan

The governing body sent well-wishes to a fan who has been tweeting the federation daily for more than a year.

After more than a year of tweeting at the Dutch FA, one Mexican fan finally got a response, though perhaps not the one he was looking for.

The Dutch FA took Monday to congratulate Mexico on its Gold Cup triumph, and specifically a Club America and Barcelona fan calling himself "EllPulpoMOr" on the win after the fan had spent every day since Mexico's elimination sending a tweet to the Dutch FA, FIFA and Mexican FA Twitter accounts to bemoan the penalty decision that went against Mexico at the World Cup.
