Senegal coach has most meme-worthy celebration


Senegal coach Aliou Cissé was the star of his squad's 2-1 win over Poland in Tuesday's Group H match.

And nothing would top his celebration of M'Baye Niang's crafty goal to put Senegal up 2-0 in the second half. It was a moment that was made for the internet.

Cissé would do three (or 3.5, maybe) fist pumps and didn't break eye contact with the camera even when the fist-pumping stopped. The World Cup's most meme-worthy moment has arrived.

That was so good.

In Senegal's only other World Cup appearance, it reached the 2002 quarterfinal. The 2018 campaign is off to a great start - both on the pitch and the internet.
