You’d swear butter wouldn’t melt…
The Ajax under 8 team wrapped up their league title recently, and while their footballing ability is frighteningly good for seven and eight-year-olds, their ability to recreate some famous goal celebrations is just about the cutest thing we’ve ever seen.
Everyone can remember being that age, and running around your garden trying to attempt the perfect Kilnsmann dive, or Bebeto rocking the baby, while there was also some boring lad in your class who opted for the one hand in the air Alan Shearer tribute.
However, these days Cristiano Ronaldo and Gareth Bale seem to be the players the kids of today are trying to mimic, and it seems like these Dutch whippersnappers are just as impressionable a bunch.

There were a couple of impressive tributes to Ronaldo’s trademark celebration…
They compare pretty well to the original.

It wasn’t all Ronny though. Gareth Bale’s trademarked (literally) celebration also got thrown around.
This young lad should expect a “cease and desist” letter from the Welshman’s solicitor any day now.
However, they were capable of producing their own routines, with these kids looking cooler than cool with a special handshake.
While it’s an incredibly cool video, it’s also a little disturbing. It’s like a bunch of really, really small adults running around. Kind of scary, if you ask me.
