Tennis legend Novak Djokovic performed the iconic ‘siu’ celebration of Cristiano Ronaldo after scoring in a game in Indian Wells.
The Serbian is currently in California to take part in the 2024 BNP Paribas Open. On Friday, Djokovic was seen playing a casual game of football with colleagues where he scored a goal around Stefanos Tsitsipas’ leg. After finding the back of the net, the legendary player was seen copying Cristiano Ronaldo’s iconic celebration.

The trademark ‘siu’ celebration sees the Portuguese superstar performing a mid-air pirouette before exclaiming “si!” (sometimes spelled “siu”) – which is Spanish for “yes!” – upon landing. It is an expression of delight at scoring. Over the years, the Al-Nassr star has performed several celebrations but the ‘siu’ remains one of his most iconic.
WHAT NEXT FOR CRISTIANO RONALDO?
The 39-year-old will be next seen in action on Monday as the Saudi Pro League outfit take on UAE’s Al Ain in the second leg of their AFC Champions League quarter-final fixture.
