Today’s Google logo continues the site’s celebration of the World Cup with a Father’s Day themed animated illustration as the tournament enters day four.

The Google Doodle team has turned the two “Os” in Google into a father-son pair, each wearing matching green toboggan styled beanies. The father figure is sporting a mustache, while the son carries a soccer ball with his stick legs moving double time to keep up with dad.

Google kicked off the World Cup four days ago with the following logo, and has kept the worldwide tournament front and center on its homepage every day since.

Search Engine Land wishes all dads a Happy Father’s Day today!
