Google CEO Sundar Pichai says the entire world was searching about “one thing” last night

It was quite the spectacle. Argentina versus France at the World Cup final will be a game that will be remembered for ages. Lionel Messi finally getting his hands on the famous golden trophy had people engrossed from Buenos Aires to Ballygunge. And it was clear that people were hooked on it online as well. Be it Twitter or Google, the number of people engaging or talking about the World Cup final was quite high.
According to Google CEO Sundar Pichai, Google had never seen such traffic in the last 25 years. “Search recorded its highest ever traffic in 25 years during the final of #FIFAWorldCup, it was like the entire world was searching about one thing!”, said Pichai in a tweet.

Much like almost everyone else, Pichai also had his view on the final and Messi. “One of the greatest games ever. Well played Argentina and France. Jogo Bonito. Nobody deserves it more than #messi, imho the greatest ever to play the game. What a swansong. #FIFAWorldCup,” he said in a tweet.
Twitter also gets ‘record’ tweets
The World Cup has been a good event for Twitter. Last month, days after the tournament began, Elon Musk claimed that the platform saw 20,000 tweets per second. That was on November 23. This record, as per Musk, was also broken during the World Cup final. When Kylian Mbappe equalised for France and got his second on the night, Twitter saw 24,400 tweets per second. In a tweet, Musk said that this was the “highest-ever for [a] World Cup.
Musk, in fact, was in Doha to watch the action live and had his say on the match. Duel in the Desert. Couldn’t ask for a better game,” he said in a tweet.
