A third of football fans are so passionate about the sport they have soaked themselves in beer, ripped clothing – and even smashed their phones.



A poll of more than 1,000 supporters of the beautiful game found 36 per cent have encountered a football fail when celebrating a goal being scored.



Pouring an entire drink over themselves (12 per cent), ripping a favourite item of clothing (eight per cent), and smashing their phone screen (seven per cent) were among the top mishaps.



More than four in 10 (41 per cent) admit to often getting carried away with the excitement during a football match.



But 64 per cent say these fails were totally worth it, just to see the goal being scored.



The study was commissioned by tech brand, HONOR, which wrapped an entire bar in the centre of Barcelona in bubble wrap for fans watching the Barcelona v Bayern Munich match – to ensure no mishaps happen.
