I think this is classic Romario. Elbows out and back, fast close touches, ready to burst at any moment. I'm trying to think of the quote he had... "I was sent by God to score goals",
My favorite player from USA '94... I remember doing this celebation after a few goals as a kid... not knowing what the hell I was doing.
Toldo could do no wrong that day... The winning stop: A nice video with highlights from the match: http://youtube.com/watch?v=m6Q-F6ZsL4Q
Paolo Maldini holds up the Champion's League trophy for the first time (as captain of course, he won more as a player): His father also held it up for Milan:
"Who's the Kaiser? I'm the Kaiser!" This photo, is more of a "did you know...?" image. I doubt many Americans have seen an image of this man as a player. That's Arsene Wenger in the white shirt, playing for FC Mulhouse. That 70's Show: The Cosmos at Yankee Stadium:
There is this photo from the opposite goal, taken just when The Hand of Dudek made that final PK stop? My favorite picture of that match. Can't find it though.
Totti scores in the game against a Parma on the final matchday of the 2000/2001 season. The Romans needed a win to win their first Scudetto in 22 years. Gabriel Batistuta celebrates his first ever Scudetto after trying so hard to win it with Fiorentina in the 90's. He finally got it right at Roma. Street Celebrations:
Milan win their 17th Scudetto and first since 1999 in May 2004 after the clinching win against Roma. This squad is called "I Meravigliosi" (The Amazing's): Milan walk out as champions on the last matchday against Brescia
Christian Vieri and Ronaldo cry as Inter lose the Scudetto on the last day of the season (May 5, 2002). This would've been Inter's first Scudetto since 1989.
The crowd in Rotterdam for Italy-Holland in Euro 2000. I don't think you can spot one single Blue shirt...

Yep....and in 79 playing for Inter in the Brazilian Semi's he celebrated the exact same way when he scored the go ahead 3-2 goal against Palmeiras.
