So finally, the rest of England understands what Liverpool fans have known all season – Peter Crouch is actually a good player.
But it’s not just the 5 goals in 3 matches that have turned the nation. No, what started as a bit of fun at a party has turned into a phenomenon. Let me walk you through how it happened…
It all started at David Beckham’s party – as broadcast by ITV
Then against Hungray, he scores a fantastic turn-and-shoot goal. And follows it with THAT celebration.
With the internet being what it is, soon loads of videos were made editing the celebration, or recreating it.
Then he goes and scores a hat-trick against Jamaica, doing the robot dance twice. (And missing a penalty.)
