Antoine Griezmann pulls out ‘Take The L’ celebration after firing Atletico Madrid ahead in Europa League final
French striker pulled out his trademark Fortnite celebration after bagging the opening goal in the Europa League final
ANTOINE GRIEZMANN celebrated firing Atletico Madrid ahead in the Europa League final by pulling out the 'Take the L' dance.
The Spaniard capitalised on a shocking Marseille error to fire the favourites in front after just 21 minutes of the contest.
It was his 28th goal of the season and one of the most important as Atleti go in hunt of silverware.
And Griezmann showed how big a fan he is of the hugely popular video game Fortnite by pulling out the dance move.
Fortnite is a multi-player online game in which players battle to remain the last person alive.
The move is supposed to troll the opponent by gloating after killing another player on the game.
It is not the first time Griezmann has done the dance, having done so against Real Madrid and Arsenal in the previous round.
It originated from the horror film It when a main character did the dance but with an added 'loser sign'.
