If you’re going to celebrate a goal by running into the stands and kissing your wife, at least make sure the goal was allowed.

Brazilian footballer Cristaldo Farias Wanderson didn’t do that over the weekend, resulting in a hilarious fail.

Wanderson, currently playing for Ludogorets Razgrad in Bulgaria, thought he’d netted a goal for his side when he ran off the pitch to celebrate with his wife.

He ran up towards the stands and planted a smooch on his missus, only to find out that play had continued.

The look on his face when he realised the goal had been disallowed was priceless.

“One of this weekend’s funniest moments in Bulgarian football,” a Twitter user said while posting the video.

“Wanderson scoring for Ludogorets against Slavia, then celebrating by kissing his wife in the stands, without realising his goal has been ruled for off-side.

“To top it all off, there was NO off-side.”

To make matters worse, the game finished 0-0.
