Goal Celebration

Watching LaLiga games,Barcelona and Real Madrid and in both games celabreting a goal was just hug and hand shake.Why can't players in our Leagues do the same instead of piling on top of every one flat on the ground.

Robbie Fowlers celebration was my favourite.

Cos they score about 150 a season, beating teams 6-0 every other week.

Don't get that in English football, each goal is celebrated accordingly.

One week. The football's been over for one week and we're getting these posts already. It's going to be a long summer

Yep, maybe the fans should be a bit calmer as well, when a goal is scored.
A smile and a thumbs up should do.

I still think when his team scores, a chap should not take his pipe out of his mouth for a moment, allowing him time for another dignified puff and quiet reflection on the merits or otherwise of said goal, before removing pipe and simply saying "Well played, that fellow." in a measured tone.
When all that is done, and ONLY then, he can go absolutely stark raving mental.

Bravo.

If these players want to have some exuberant, choreographed goal celebration then fine.

Maybe if they changed the rule and said the game has to restart within 30 seconds regardless of where the players are then it may curb the celebration.

That's why Real Madrid want Dele Alli - for the handshake celebrations.

Not sure why it doesn't work, when you link to a specific time in a Youtube video on this forum.
Anyway, 03.52.
