Best goal celebration

 

Fredi Kanouté celebrated his last ever goal for Sevilla in typically classy, understated way. He pulled his shirt up to reveal a message underneath. It said simply: "Gracias." But the best was Carlos Martins. He learned that his little son was seriously ill and needed a bone marrow transplant. His team-mates, both with club and country, rallied around him, donation points were set up round the ground, team-mates promised to contribute, and there were T-shirts in support. So when he scored a beauty to give his struggling side a 2-1 lead, the celebration was bound to be a bit special. Gripping the T-shirt, he began to cry and there was a colossal ovation. It was the perfect night; a genuinely touching moment … until someone threw an umbrella from the stands which hit the linesman in the face, drawing blood. Two minutes after Martin's moment, the game was abandoned.
