It’s about time a footballer used this as a goal celebration.
The Simpsons’ episode “Last Exit to Springfield” is almost 23 years old, yet no footballer has ever thought of celebrating like Homer when he scored a victory over Mr. Burns for the power plant union.Until now…Michail Antonio scored the only goal as West Ham United beat Sunderland in the early Premier League kick-off on Saturday.
And the winger decided enough was enough, someone had to pay tribute to Homer’s celebration.
Or at least that’s how Twitter saw it.
