This video shows the most commonly tweeted #hashflags on Twitter from the previous 8 hours for locations across the world during the Group Stage. A version for the round of 16 will be generated after it completes, and a final one after the finals have completed.

Some highlights include :

The strongest support throughout appears to be for Brazil (for instance, see the world glow yellow from 0:35 to 0:42 secs), and it's easy to pick out the big upsets so far:
South Korea beating Greece, 12 June (0:18 secs)
England drawing with USA, 12 June (0:22 secs)
Switzerland beating Spain, 16 June (0:45 secs)
France losing to Mexico, 17 June (0:52 secs)
Serbia beating Germany, 18 June (0:55 secs)
England drawing with Algeria, 18 June (0:57 secs)
Italy drawing with New Zealand, 20 June (1:10 secs)
France losing to South Africa (and not going through), 22 June (1:21 secs)
Italy losing to Slovakia (and not going through), 24 June (1:33 secs)

This uses trend data from http://Trendsmap.com/worldcup which are calcualted from tweets off http://twitter.com/ to identify the top tweeted team in areas with strong trends. The time stamp in the bottom corner represents the end of the trend-sampling period.

Soundtrack is 'Oxigenio' by 'Psy Brazil' - http://www.jamendo.com/en/artist/psydom
