Drat! and double drat!
Just bloody brilliant!!! love it! fantastic pictures! Thanks for posting them.
Agree it's an absolutely ridiculous rule, but all the players know it, so why do it
The icing on the cherry is after he strikes it he shuffles backwards a few steps, don't know why, but it's cool as ****
It's absolutely CRIMINAL that players get booked for over-celebrating and taking off their shirts.
Do the powers that be say why taking your shirt off to celebrate a goal is a yellow card offence? Players take their shirts of at the end of the match whilst still on the pitch and that is still technically part of the game as they can red carded after the final whistle.
This rule is the work of partypooping curmudgeons.
Edit:
Just found this on Fifa.com
Footballers who remove their jerseys during post-goal celebrations are to receive automatic yellow cards. The modification to Law 12, which was approved last February by the International Football Association Board (IFAB), will come into effect from 1 July, 2004.
The IFAB, the body responsible for the Laws of the Game, decided to add a detail to Law 12 relating to 'Fouls and Misconduct', stating: "A player who removes his jersey after scoring a goal will be cautioned for unsporting behaviour."
So as to avoid any ambiguities and facilitate the correct interpretation and application of the Law, a player will be deemed to have removed his jersey - and therefore become liable for a caution - if the jersey has been pulled over the player's head, or if his head has been covered by the jersey (see illustration - Removal of the jersey guidelines ).
Under the section "Additional Instructions for Referees and Assistant Referees", the Laws clearly state: "Removing one's shirt after scoring is unnecessary and players should avoid such excessive displays of joy."
This decision was agreed on at the 118th Annual Meeting of the International Football Association Board (IFAB) on 28 February 2004 in London, and will come into effect on 1 July this year.
What utter nonsense!
but these sort of things don't happen too often and fortunately I was as good as right behind it..enjoy

Nice the see the West Ham number 6 is the first one to raise his arm cheering even before the ball hit the back of the net
Victor Wanyama's got 75% of the vote so far, Jose needs a bit of love.
Because it's fun. Have you never done anything you weren't supposed to?Agree it's an absolutely ridiculous rule, but all the players know it, so why do it
