Milla's action is remembered because Milla celebrated her goal with a typical shake in the corner of the field.

"We feel happy even though England stopped us. We are very happy because we have gone through a great tournament. 1990 is an unforgettable memory," Milla told FourFourTwo

If you are curious who is the pioneer of the goal style celebrations in modern football, Roger Milla can be said to be the celebration of goals. If usually, a player just ran happily when scoring a goal, Roger Milla did a different thing. The Cameroon player immediately performed a dance that was welcomed by many spectators. People claim to be entertained by the existence of the dance so that football looks more than a game. However, this is believed to be an inspiration for many players to do the same thing which is to celebrate different goals so that they can certainly demonstrate different styles when they score goals in a match anywhere and anytime.

What Milla has done through her celebration of making football, especially the World Cup is getting more beautiful. Because after that, many famous players finally made special ways to celebrate their goals. Starting from the timang-timang celebration in the style of Bebeto, rubbing Christian Vieri shoes, salto Miroslav Klose, Tim Cahill's boxer style, to Siphiwe Tshabalala-style African dance.
