6 | Marco Tardelli (1982)

Brian looks at the magic of the goal celebration, the most intense expression of joy in all of sports. We’ll talk about Marco Tardelli's legendary screaming run after scoring in the 1982 World Cup final. We’ll also talk about backflips, babies, dances, pile-ons, and when you’re allowed to pose like a centerfold on a soccer pitch. (Answer: when you’ve just scored a World Cup goal.)
