I'm watching the Champions League soccer final right now, and Barcelona just scored its second goal in four minutes to go up 2 - 1 over Arsenal with 10 minutes left in the match. Arsenal scored in the first half and led for about 40 minutes, despite losing its goalie to a red card 18 minutes into the match.
At the 80 minute mark, Barca's Samuel Eto'o slid behind the defense on the right side and flicked in a quick shot before collapsing to his knees in the rain. Immediately mobbed by teammates, Eto'o was kissed by at least two excited teammates. It was a very Brokeback moment.
Barca held on to win 2 - 1, but I didn't see any more kissing during the celebration. Too bad, as I think this could really catch on in the NFL now that certain touchdown celebrations are banned.
