VIDEO: Flowers showcases Ronaldo’s trademark ‘Siu’ celebration at NFL
Soccer celebrations in NFL circles are becoming a regular theme
Portuguese forward Cristiano Ronaldo’s trademark “Siu” goal celebration fever has gripped the National Football League as Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Zay Flowers showcased the former’s icon move after scoring a goal during a fixture of the mega event.
The Baltimore Ravens wide receiver is not the first, and probably will not be the last, to turn to five-time Ballon d’Or winner Ronaldo for inspiration, reported goal.com.
Flowers lined up a penalty against a team-mate acting as a goalkeeper before wheeling away in CR7 mode.
Flowers — a Fort Lauderdale native — was taken by the Ravens with the 22nd pick in the 2023 NFL Draft.
It is pertinent to mention here that soccer celebrations in NFL circles are becoming a regular theme, with Manchester City striker Erling Haaland having already seen his meditation routine emulated by Allen Lazard during his visit to London with the Green Bay Packers in 2022.
