During Sunday's EURO qualifiers game between Portugal and Luxembourg, Cristiano Ronaldo made rounds both with his play and with his celebration. The 5-time Ballon d'Or winner scored two goals on the night as Portugal outplayed Luxembourg 6-0. CR7, who usually celebrates his goals by showcasing his signature "Siuuu" leap, came up with something new this time upon scoring.
In the 9th minute of the match, Cristiano Ronaldo opened the scoring for Portugal, with an improvised finish. After the ball went in, Ronaldo sprinted in elation as he usually does after scoring and took the leap again but this did time not display the "Siuuu!" celebration, rather he introduced the world to a new celebration or a blend of his celebrations. While "Siuuu" has been carried forward from his days at Real Madrid, the Portuguese superstar exhibited a fresh goal celebration at his second stint with Manchester United. This new ecstatic act which can be done by placing the head up, eyes closed, and partially joining hands, keeping it together on the chest is known as the "Nap" celebration. Though Ronaldo performs the latter bit occasionally, on Sunday night, the 38-year-old brought it back and combined it with "Siuuu!".
