The connection between Siiuuu and Real Madrid
While the celebration was always there, He didn’t use the word in the early days of his career. While talking about it and how Real Madrid was a big part of it he said, “When we would win, everyone would say ‘siiiii’ and so… I started to say it… Don’t know why, it was natural. I was in the USA and we played against Chelsea and I don’t know where this is coming from, the celebration. I just scored the goal, and it just came out. It was just natural, to be honest.”
