No, the n-word is not trending right now on Twitter, though that didn't stop thousands of people from doing the biggest collective double and thrid take as they signed into their Twitter accounts this afternoon.
The hashtag #NIRGER refers to the football match that happened today between Northern Ireland and Germany, a game that ended in a 2-0 victory by Germany.

Though we wouldn't blame you, if like everyone else you thought you saw something else entirely.
