Lithuanian Footballer's Goal Celebration Might Be The Best Ever (Video)

Trakai FK striker celebrates by jumping into the empty stands to give himself a round of applause
May 8, 2014

Belarusian striker Dzmitry Koub powered in an equalizer for Trakai FK in their Lithuanian A Lyga match against league-leaders Zalgiris in the 86th minute, but was not interested in a typical goal celebration. Swiftly eluding teammates that wanted to celebrate with him, Koub took full advantage of an empty stand behind the corner flag (hard to see him attempting this at Old Trafford) and casually made his way up the stairs into the stands where he sat down and applauded his own effort. Somewhere in Milan, Mario Balotelli is cursing himself for not coming up with this idea first. Unfortunately for Koub, Zalgiris remains at the top of the table, while Trakai sits mid-table in 5th position, 8 points behind the leaders. The only question that remains now is whether the folks at EA Sports will be able to include this as a celebration option in FIFA '15.
