Erling Haaland Mocks Gary Lineker with Didier Drogba Celebration

Haaland Keeps Ballon d’Or Promise

Erling Haaland snubbed Gary Lineker during his goal celebration against Young Boys on Tuesday night, opting instead for a tribute to Chelsea legend Didier Drogba. The Manchester City star had promised to mimic Lineker's famous goal celebration at the Ballon d’Or ceremony, which was co-hosted by Drogba and Lineker. Haaland scored a penalty and ran to the corner flag, pumping his arms out to the side, just like Drogba used to do.

Lineker Challenge

During the Ballon d’Or ceremony, Drogba challenged Haaland to choose between his celebration and Lineker's trademark 'fist pumping' celebration for his next goal. Haaland accepted the challenge and promised to think of both legends when he scored his next goal.
