Athletistic/ Football. On Saturday, February 18, Russian striker “Aris” Alexander Kokorin scored another goal in the Cypriot team.
This time, the Russian managed to convert a penalty in the game against Nea Salamina. Immediately after the point kick, Kokorin turned to the opponent’s fans and celebrated the goal by putting his palms over his ears.
Thus, Kokorin repeated Lionel Messi’s gesture after a precise strike on the goal of the Netherlands team in the quarterfinals of the World Cup in Qatar.
Kokorin’s action was seen by the match referee as a provocation and awarded the Russian a yellow card.
