Sep 15, 2024
Alejandro Garnacho drew inspiration from Mohammed Kudus’ signature goal celebration after scoring a stoppage-time goal in Manchester United's dominant victory over Southampton.
Garnacho, who came off the bench, capped off United’s performance with a strike that helped them regain momentum in their campaign.
Garnacho opens Premier League goal-scoring account
After drawing blank in his first three Premier League matches, the 20-year-old finally broke his drought in emphatic fashion.
Connecting with a precise pass from Diogo Dalot, Garnacho unleashed a powerful first-time shot from inside the box, leaving the goalkeeper with no chance, The Guardian reports.
Garnacho 'copies' Mohammed Kudus' celebration
Celebrating in style, Garnacho ran to the advertising boards, where he struck a pose while sitting on the hoardings, a scene that mirrored a familiar celebration made popular by Kudus.
While Garnacho is quickly adopting the celebration, it’s important to remember that Mohammed Kudus was the originator.
The Ghanaian midfielder introduced the ‘take-a-seat’ celebration last season, even going as far as requesting a stool from stewards or ball boys to elevate the gesture, per Citi Sports.
This unique celebration is becoming a trend across football, and Garnacho may continue to replicate it whenever he finds the back of the net.
