Gabriel, Arsenal defender, celebrated his goal against Sporting (1-5) by imitating the celebration of Viktor Gyökeres, scorer for… Sporting, who responded to him with irony at the end of the match.
Gabriel Magalhaes (26 years old) is the teasing type. The Arsenal defender celebrated his goal during the big victory at Sporting (1-5) by taking over the celebration of the local idol, Viktor Gyökeres (26 years old). The former Lille player joined his two hands before placing them in front of his eyes, like the Swedish striker who places his two hands in front of his mouth after each of his goals.
“He is free to copy it if he cannot create one for himself”
The Swedish striker was asked about this celebration copied by the Brazilian. By sending him a nice dig about his lack of personality. “I didn’t know he did it, but it’s funny that he likes my celebration,” he told media outlet Viaplay Fotboll. “He is free to copy it if he cannot create one for himself.”
Tuesday evening, Gyökeres, second scorer in the competition with 5 goals, remained silent even if he found the post with a powerful strike (86th). Since the start of the season, the former Brighton and Coventry player has scored 24 goals in 20 matches in all competitions. Sproting, who lost their coach Ruiben Amorim who left for Manchester United during the break, suffered their first defeat of the season in the Champions League and are currently in 8th place, directly qualifying for the round of 16.
“What I can promise is maximum daily work to continue making Sporting a winning club, to try to win more often and to continue playing good football as everyone is used to,” said Joao Pereira , the successor of Amorim. “Today was not that day, we didn't start well and, so we have to work during these three days to prepare for the match against Santa Clara and give a different response.”
