In what was a routine 9-1 thumping of Cuba during the group stages of the 2015 CONCACAF U-20s Championship, Mexico pulled off a considerably less than routine goal celebration. 3-1 up after 19 minutes, El Tri rolled out this delightful human bicycle:
Quite the feat of human engineering. It certainly scores well for team-work, and clear evidence of a back rest on the saddle gives Mexico's next generation further points for style: this is undoubtedly a classic Raleigh Chopper they've constructed.
But where does it sit in the pantheon of all-time great goal celebrations? While El Tri's human bicycle certainly knocks the spots off a Nani backflip or a Francesco Totti Selfie (though the Roman scores highly for poignancy and passion), until they've assembled a body of work comparable to Stjarnan FC, the Icelanders will remain the undisputed kings of celebratory overkill.
