Super Eagles and Cologne striker Anthony Ujah scored a goal for the German clubside over the weekend but got in the news for his bizarre celebration.
The Benue State born footballer scored in the 82nd minute in Sunday's Bundesliga
match against Eintracht Frankfurt and immediately ran over to the
touchline where the
goat was stationed, before he pulled sharply on
Hennes’s horns and attempted to mount the animal.
The goat, named after former player and coach Hennes Weisweiler, is a regular feature at Cologne’s home games and is said to be in a good condition, despite the excessive celebrations.
This is not the first time he has celebrated with the mascot.
The striker however apologised later on Instagram admitting he was too rough celebrating the goal.
"Yeeeeees. Finally a win for us at home and what a special way it came," Ujah writes on Twitter after Koln won for the first time in seven matches.
"Sorry to Hennes I was a bit too hard on him," he adds
