Arsenal's Gabriel Copies Sporting Star Gyokeres' Celebration in Champions League Win

The defender's gesture, seen as taunting Viktor Gyokeres, is linked to a past celebration rivalry between the teams.

Arsenal defeated Sporting Lisbon 3-0 in a Champions League match, with Gabriel scoring the third goal via a header.
After scoring, Gabriel mimicked Viktor Gyokeres' signature goal celebration, placing his hands over his eyes, though he executed it incorrectly.
Gyokeres, a prolific striker for Sporting, responded humorously, saying Gabriel is 'welcome to steal' the celebration if he can't create his own.
The gesture is believed to reference a similar incident in 2023 when Sporting’s Pedro Goncalves mimicked Arsenal’s Granit Xhaka’s celebration after a Europa League victory.
Gabriel’s actions added to the narrative of playful but pointed celebration rivalries in modern football.
