Vine: Totti ruins perfectly good goal with selfie celebration

There is no God

Brace yourselves, you’re about to watch Francesco Totti take a selfie on a football pitch

In a bold move, the 38-year-old Roma stalwart decided the perfect way to celebrate finding the net against bitter rivals Lazio.

Totti, who is one of the most beloved footballers to ever grace a football pitch has divided public opinion with the celebration. Some have hailed him as a legend for the stunt, others have entered the throes of depression after seeing their hero take part in the much maligned fad that’s been sweeping the globe.

Totti Selfie

To Totti’s credit, he didn’t use a “selfie stick”. If he had used one of those contraptions, his reputation may have been tarnished forever. That would have been an act worse than if he had ripped off his shirt, laid it out in the centre of the pitch then squatted down and evacuated his bowels all over the crest.
