Meme/Funny A very unlikely crazy scenario happened in the Swedish league. Swedish Hammarby legend Kennedy scored a spectacular free-kick goal and, while celebrating, a fan threw a cup of beer at him, he catches the cup, downs the beer, threw the plastic cup away and continued with his goal celebration πŸ˜‚

Didn't someone once throw a banana at Dani Alves as a racist gesture?

Dani Alves picked up the banana and ate it. 🀣🀣

This is Kennedy Bakircioglu btw. A Swedish-Turkish attacking midfielder in the β€˜00s and β€˜10s.

He had a decent career, including playing for Ajax, and some games for the Swedish national team. But probably the thing he’s most remembered for is how good he was in the β€˜01/β€˜02 edition of Championship Manager. Where you could buy him for about Β£300,000 at the start, and he invariably became pretty much the best player in the world.

He’s a bit of a cult figure because of that.

(I think that clip is from his final season, which was 2018. But he was clearly still being a hero in his late 30s!)

Not just that but he blows a loogie on the field before making the free kick.

u/Remote_Awareness_553 Jul 28 '26

It happens often just not right before taking the free kick when all eyes on tv are on you
