Favourite goal celebrations?

[ken foree]

marco tardelli's screaming "no-no-no" run for italy against germans in the '82 wc final must be top three of all time

..a fairly friggin good clip of which can be found for free here:

Rivelino and Jairzinho in 1970.

Stand facing the crowd with both fists punching the air at the same time. Looks a bit like a gorilla.

Yes - Marco Tardelli.

The Dutch in 74 had a habit of kicking the ball back into the net after it rebounded out. Neeskens done it in the final.

Worst - anyone remember Mick Channon and his windmill arm.

I love Eidur Gudjohnsens celebration, it's hard to describe it, just a little hand motion thingy he does, it's pure class.

Maradonas insane celebration in '94 was fantastic too but Roger Millas dog ****ing on the corner flag one is hard to beat.

A personal favourite though was Jason Byrnes v Bohs last year, just went over to their fans who were chanting at him all night and stood there looking at them with no expression on his face at all, arms outstretched. Brilliant.

Actually does anyone remember the Newcastle player who just went insane and started kicking the sponsorship boards? That was class

Mark Hughes v Liverpool, Semi Final Replay, Maine Road, 1985.

Timuri Ketsbaia!

Jan Aage Fjortoft (remember him?!) had the aeroplane celebration. 'Twas fairly popular back in the day!

Ghod - scoring his 50th against the forces of darkness at Ibrox

Lee sharpe - elvis impersonation at the corner flag

[Karlos]

They are all coming back to me now!

Wrighty's '179 Just done it' t-shirt was class even though he cocked it up by displaying it after 178 goals - lucky that he got a hat-trick that day in the end!

Romario, Bebeto and Branco (i think) rocking the baby after Bebto's goal against Holland in '98

Tony Adams pointing to his bandaged head after scoring against Ipswich in the FA Cup. 2 nights previous he had fallen down the stairs of a Romford Nightclub!! Nice one

Stuart Pearce after his penalty against Spain, pure emotion.

Not exactly a player celebration, but Mick McCarthy's face before, during and after Keane's goal against Germany in 2002 is one I'll never forget!!

Some bad ones: david platt's 'jazz hands - esque' celebration that he used to do after scoring - brutal!

Ryan Giggs pulling his shirt off - besides the fact THAT goal hurt alot - he should come with a government health warning!! for a moment I thought the aul lad had flicked to the discovery channel for a show about espaced Neanderthal apes!!

Class alright

gazza's celebration after the goal against scotland...re-acting the famous dentist's chair

[Dublin12]

Smudgers goal against Man utd at old trafford last season,gald to see he's keeping the bench warm there now

[monutdfc]

Roger Millas dog ****ing on the corner flag one is hard to beat.

Was that Roger Milla?
I remember him dancing at the corner flag (v Colombia I think). Was the p**ing Daniel Amokachi?

Puts tears in my eyes every time i see it, very emotional celebration... I was crying after that match, even though we DREW.

Best though i think was when Fergie And Kidd ran on the pitch and Kidd kissed the grass, with Fergie punching the air after Steve Bruce had thundered in a header from a Pallister cross against Sheffield Wednesday @ OT to virtually gurantee United the League title. Brilliant

You're probably right I'm not really sure.

Also Tony Adams celebration after his left footed volley in '98 was absolutley class

[stojkovic]

John Aldridge when he scored against Mexico in 94 after his touchline antics. He just grapped the ball out of the net and ran back with it. NOBODY dared congratulate him because he was so wound up.

Ronny Rosenthal celebrating scoring into an empty net only to see the ball come back off the bar.
