Mohammed Kudus has been scoring for fun at West Ham in the last few weeks.
The Ghanaian International was on target as the Hammers condemned Manchester United to another defeat. He pulled out his popular celebration and later gave a funny explanation about it.
The 23-year-old scored West Ham's second goal following an error from Man United youngster Kobbie Mainoo in the 78th minute. The strike was his 10th goal of the season, and it seems she is starting to catch fire in a West Ham shirt.
After his goal, the winger did his trademark celebration. In his post-match interview, he revealed that the celebration doesn't have a deeper meaning. His goal sealed a massive 2-0 win over the Red Devils, per BBC.

Kudus has scored six Premier League goals in 15 appearances and will be looking to score a few more before heading to the 2024 Africa Cup of Nations.
He will hope to score when West Ham visit the Emirates to face title challengers Arsenal.
Sports Brief reported that Black Stars coach, Chris Hughton released his 55-man squad for the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations in Ivory Coast next year. Kudus was also named in Hughton's provisional squad.
Hughton included England-born West Bromwich Albion forward, Brandon Thomas-Asante as well as 11 home-based players in his team.
The team, which will be pruned to 26 men, also sees youngster Forson Amankwah earning his place in Ghana's squad for the first time.
