Design/Methodology: The Twitter Advanced Search tool was used to collect the data of comments, retweets and likes made by the followers on Twitter of only those participant clubs which have a verified Twitter account, the season for which the data is collected for each club is the last completed season of each club before the AFC Champions League 2021. After collecting the data, the clubs were ranked using Microsoft Excel 2013 on the basis of two parameters: Activity and Engagement.
Findings: The Study revealed that FC Goa was the second best performing club in terms of activity on Twitter out of a total of 20 participating clubs however, in terms of being able to garner enough engagement from their followers, they stood last.
