Vincent Kompany to Host Premier League’s First Post-match Interview on Facebook & Twitter

Club captain gives fans the chance to ask questions after the Blackburn match, streamed live on YouTube.

Manchester City and Belgium International Captain, Vincent Kompany is set to take part in the Premier League’s first live post-match interview, via Twitter and Facebook. After the final whistle of City’s clash this Saturday at the Etihad Stadium against Blackburn, the skipper will face the media as usual; however, this time it will also be the fans asking the questions…   

Fans are being given the chance to ask their questions by simply tweeting their requests to @vincentkompany, using the hashtag #askvincent.  Supporters not on Twitter need not worry, as they can also post their questions on Vincent’s Facebook page: www.facebook.com/vincentkompany.

The interview will also be streamed live across:

• www.facebook.com/mcfcofficial
• live.mcfc.co.uk
• www.youtube.com/mcfcofficial
• and Vincent’s Facebook page.

Commenting on the upcoming Q&A, Vincent Kompany, said: “Ask any athlete and they will tell you, when the final whistle rings out, it’s either the best or worst of feelings.  The way the media watch a game is completely different compared to the way true supporters experience it.  Fans kick every ball, feel every tackle and ultimately win or lose as part of the team, together.

“I just wanted to use social media to give ours fans the chance to have their voices heard, instead of shouting at the TV, wishing the interviewer would ask the kinds of questions that really matter to them.”
