U.S. men’s soccer star Christian Pulisic celebrated making the first goal in the team’s 4-2 victory against Jamaica by rocking the viral dance moves that have been sweeping the sports world following President-elect Donald Trump’s victory.
It happened on Monday night at the Concacaf Nations League Quarterfinals in St. Louis when Pulisic kicked the ball over the goalkeeper’s head to land it in the back of the net and take U.S. up 1-0 in the game, USA Today reported.
After the soccer star made the goal, he ran out of the goalie box and back out onto the field, where he stopped and did the “Trump” dance — making two fists and twisting his hips — which has become a viral sensation.
It became a trend on social media after supporters made videos of themselves doing the same dance moves that Trump often did when he danced to the Village People’s “Y.M.C.A.” at his numerous campaign rallies.
NFL players from across the league have also started celebrating their individual victories by doing the “Trump” dance.
Las Vegas Raiders tight end Brock Bowers did the Trump-esque dance moves when he scored a touchdown on Sunday, after he caught a 23-yard pass late in the third quarter to give the Raiders 12 points against the Miami Dolphin’s 17.
And while those watching the game live saw Bowers’ dance in the end zone — and then a shot of Raiders’ owner Mark Davis reacting to the TD — the victory celebration seemed to be missing from the post “NFL on CBS” made on X, OutKick noted.
The social media post cut showed the 23-yard catch and then cut straight to the shot of Davis in his suite.
But Bowers wasn’t the only NFL player rocking the dance moves, which Trump made famous while dancing to the “Y.M.C.A.”
During the Detroit Lions game Za’Darius Smith and Malcolm Rodriguez celebrated their team’s defensive stop on Sunday against the Jacksonville Jaguars, also by doing the funny Trump-esque dance moves.
Tennessee Titan’s players Calvin Ridley and Nick Westbrook-Ikhine busted out the Trump moves ahead of what appeared to be a touchdown during the team’s game against the Minnesota Vikings.
The viral dance even made an appearance on Saturday at Madison Square Garden during the UFC Championship, when Jon “Bones” Jones rocked the moves from the ring in his victory against Stipe Miocic, USA Today noted.
After Jones won, he stood in the ring, did the Trump dance, and then pointed to President-elect Donald Trump — who was in the audience with several supporters, including Kid Rock, X founder Elon Musk, Robert F. Kennedy Jr., and Tulsi Gabbard.
