Snapchat has teamed up with Europe's top football clubs to release a series of lenses that allow fans to show support for their team in an exciting way.

Bespoke lenses for fans of 13 teams across the UK, France, Italy, Spain and Germany are available across each team's country until midnight Sunday 22 January, after which they'll be available at each team's stadium for the rest of the season.

In the UK, supporters of Arsenal, Chelsea, Everton, Liverpool and Manchester City will be able to paint their face in their teams' colour and head a ball in real time in a game-like experience:

Other teams include Olympique de Marseille and Paris St. Germain in France, Borussia Dortmund and Bayern Munich in Germany, Juventus and Inter Milan in Italy and FC Barcelona and Atletico Madrid in Spain.

Snaps can be shared as a picture or video message with friends, or posted to their Snapchat 'My Story' so all friends can see it.

After Sunday, fans going to the game or visiting the training ground, the club shop or on a stadium tour will still be able to play with the lenses.

Here's a good selection of Snapchat-related tweets from the clubs:
