11. Rock The Baby
http://youtu.be/sbhaDnd-5kg One celebration that gets branded about far too often, is the 'rock the baby', many players have used this celebration in the last 20 years. The first time the celebration was used was at the 1994 World Cup in America, when Brazilian, Bebeto gave the South Americans a 2-0 against Holland in their quarter-final in Dallas. The celebration is not what we have come to expect from Brazilan players with their samba style dancing that we have seen from the likes of Robinho and Ronaldinho more recently. This celebration was brilliant once and once only. Obviously, the celebration is used to celebrate the birth of a child, not a goal, surely players can think of something a little more original, it isnt asking for much. Players like Luis Garcia and Carlos Tevez have their own way and acknowledging their children, Garcia sucks his thumb and Tevez used to keep a dummy in his sock, which he would put in his mouth after he scored.
