Few celebrations in world football are more iconic than Cristiano Ronaldo\u2019s \u2018Siuuu\u2019.<\/p>\n
The Portuguese superstar sprints towards the corner flag, leaps high, twirls in mid-air, then lands with his feet planted wide and his arms thrown back by his side.<\/p>\n
At the same time, he shouts \u201cSiuuu!\u201d, an exaggerated version of \u2018si\u2019, the Spanish word for \u2018yes\u2019.<\/p>\n
Ronaldo first unveiled the ritual after scoring for Real Madrid against Chelsea during a pre-season friendly in Miami in August 2013, insisting it was a spontaneous reaction.<\/p>\n
The former Manchester United forward explained: \u201cI started to say \u2018si\u2019, like \u2018yes\u2019, when I was at Real Madrid.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI was in the USA, and we played against Chelsea, and I don\u2019t where the celebration came from. I just scored the goal and it came out. It was just natural. Since that, I started to do it more often.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Few celebrations in world football are more iconic than Cristiano Ronaldo\u2019s \u2018Siuuu\u2019.
