Feyenoord left-back Gijs Smal has introduced a strange goal celebration, and the fans can’t wait to see him do it on the pitch.
The 26-year-old Dutch defender was filmed doing the crazy celebration for social media fans ahead of the Eredivisie 2024–25 season, which starts on August 9, 2024.
Smal was seen moving his shirt down in a sloped position and sliding his head down in what appeared to be an unusual dance movie. He looked like a zombie character.
A lot of football fans took to their social media accounts to react to the funny football celebration created by the football star.
A fan said, “This is so awful it becomes awesome.” Another football fan said, “Think how fuming you’d be if you concede in the last minute on FIFA, and the bloke does that. Instantly broken controller.”
Another person said, “Lol, add that to the next FIFA asap!”
In June 2024, Smal joined the Dutch League giant, Feyenoord, on a free transfer from FC Twente. He proceeded to sign a four-year deal with the club.
