Racing winger Simon Zebo mimicked Juventus forward Cristiano Ronaldo’s famous goal celebration after scoring against the Scarlets on Saturday.
Zebo scored twice for Racing in the 46-33 win at the Paris La Defense Arena bringing his record this season to 14 tries in 19 games across all competitions.

The former Munster utility has been sensational for Racing on both the wing and at full-back and is enjoying his life in the French capital.
However, his season was recently soured when he claimed that he was racially abused during a recent visit with Racing to Ulster, an incident the club strongly condemned.
“Racing does not wish to stigmatise Ulster Rugby as a whole,” said Racing.
“The insults suffered by Simon Zebo are the actions of only one or two individuals,” their statement added.
“They have been condemned by many Ulster fans who have shown their support for Simon.
“Racism has no place in rugby, in which the values of solidarity and togetherness are the exact opposite of any forms of discrimination.”
Zebo tweeted on the incident: “I hope my ears deceived me with some comments directed my way from the crowd. #Not on – Django wins in the end.”
