12 Trademark goal celebrations of footballers

Footballers Trademark Goal Celebrations

7) Robbie Keane – Cartwheel, roll and firing pistols

Robbie Keane is so attentive about his celebration that he, in his own words, finds it “annoying” when any of his team-mates come in the middle and disrupt his three-fold celebration act.

It starts with a cartwheel which is followed by a forward roll and then ended with what seems like firing a pair of make-shift pistols. It’s like he wants to follow the 3-acts of a magic: the pledge, the turn and the prestige and doesn’t like it when he is interrupted. Talk about being serious on celebrations!

8) Nani – Backflip

Talk about risky goal celebrations and the Portuguese’s name would appear at the top of the list. Nani just loves to do a graceful backflip after scoring. Since he doesn’t score many, we don’t often get to see the swan-like divinity of this celebration.

He is so obsessed with it that Sir Alex Ferguson told him to stop celebrating like that due to the hazards it brings with it. But Nani chose to leave Manchester United than listen to his former manager. That is how much he loves a backflip.

9) Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang – Spiderman mask

Most of us just love comic-book heroes, but Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang’s love for them is just on another level. After almost each time he scores a goal, he does a Spiderman celebration by wearing a mask and shows us how much he loves his superheroes.

In fact, he also did a Batman celebration, taking Reus for his sidekick as Robin – after scoring against bitter rivals Schalke. Guess we won’t have a tough time in figuring out what posters the Gabon internationals has plastered on the walls of his room.
