The purpose is to stream real time data from social platforms such as twitter. To a data scientist, this is an example of data acquisition.
Since football is a universal game, the world cup finals between France and Croatia gives a platform to have a feel of what people are talking about.
The streamed data can then be analysed to extract meaningful information such as the popularity of the game, a player, action, goal etc.
Feel free to use this data for analysis
