NEW YORK, NY – Scoring a goal in soccer is great! Celebrating it is even better!
While soccer isn’t at the same level as football and baseball here in the States, it’s without a doubt the most popular sport in the world. Regardless, soccer is catching on here and the MLS is growing at an unbelievable rate. Many Americans may find the sport boring, but that’s not to say that they don’t appreciate a great goal. Everyone does. Even better than a great goal is … a great goal celebration.
It seems as though soccer players and teams are putting more emphasis on the celebration. Teams are pushing the boundaries of creativity with their elaborate goal celebrations of late. While the other team certainly doesn’t appreciate the extra effort on celebrations, we as fans love seeing soccer players at their creative best. Below we have compiled a collection of recent, over-the-top soccer celebrations.
