On August 26, 2019, Brazilian soccer star Wanderson Cristaldo Farias made headlines after a hilarious goal celebration in the Bulgarian First Division league.
According to reports, Cristaldo scored a goal for Ludogorets against Slavia, but his joy was short-lived as the goal was disallowed for offside.
Undeterred, Cristaldo sprinted towards the stands to celebrate with his wife, who was in attendance. The loving pair shared a passionate kiss, unaware that the goal had been ruled out.
It wasn't until Cristaldo turned around and realized his mistake that the reality of the situation sunk in. The video of the incident quickly went viral on social media, with many finding it to be one of the funniest moments in Bulgarian football that weekend.
Twitter user Mshumanov posted the video online, captioning it: "One of this weekend's funniest moments in Bulgarian football. 'Wanderson scoring for Ludogorets against Slavia, then celebrating by kissing his wife in the stands, without realising his goal has been ruled for offside.' To top it all off, there was NO offside."
