Piers Morgan tried to take down Gary Lineker but the result was entirely predictable

Got to pick and choose these because it seems to happen so often, but this one is a classic of its genre.

It started when Lineker shared this and it was spotted by Morgan.

Monday blues? Here’s a video of a goat playing with a dog that might cheer you up. https://t.co/lnon62A9U9

Fabulous.
This is like watching @Lord_Sugar & @GaryLineker trying to keep up with me on Twitter. https://t.co/gwUgJFfs7z

With your jowls, you resemble the dog more than the goat. https://t.co/cEtcUT6v3T

To be fair, the dog's actually trying to tackle Messi, so any comparison with you is obviously flawed. https://t.co/j1d6zc2AH4

Correct, never hacked anyone. Another lovely ball across the 6 yard box, cheers. https://t.co/VetMz2TECQ

Boom! Except, fair play, Morgan took it deep into injury time but we’re not sure this counts as a last-minute equaliser.

Found it too taxing, presumably? https://t.co/vU2BlkDy6F
