@footballcliches.bsky.social Yamal’s goal celebration there warrants some discussion. High fives, dance routine, boot cleaning, multiple hand gestures… must be some sort of record for number of distinct actions within a single celebration?

Seriously, it's Bafta-worthy stuff. You must listen.

(We somehow missed Everton, of all the clubs 😩)
