After his team surprised everyone by beating Poland 2-1, Senegal coach Aliou Cissé, in his excitement, made some very GIF-able celebrations. After M’Baye Niang strike put Senegal up 2-0 in the second half, an elated Cissé gave one of the great World Cup coaching celebrations. Slowly pumping his right hand, up and down three times, all while enigmatically staring right at the camera, Cissé’s celebration was made for the internet.
Cissé, who produced meme-worthy moments throughout the match, was lauded for his teams’ excellent defensive showing
Cissé, who previously played as a midfielder for Birmingham City, and later Portsmouth will be hoping that his team can make good showing of themselves at the World Cup by qualifying for the knockout stages.
The first African team to register a win in the 2018 World Cup, Senegal can be guaranteed to give us even more memorable moments as the tournament progresses.
