Antonio Rudiger is always too energetic, and that was on display again as the German defender celebrated Real Madrid’s late winner against Napoli in the UEFA Champions League.

Los Blancos nicked a late winner after an Alex Meret own goal gave the Spanish giants a 3-2 lead with just 12 minutes left of the game to play, sparking wild celebrations from the Real Madrid players.

Rudiger’s celebration caught the attention of fans present at the Diego Armando Maradona Stadium after the German defender ‘Frog Slashed’ his Real Madrid teammates while in a jubilant mood.

The 30-year-old defender played a key role for the 14-time Champions League winners, keeping Napoli’s key forward Victor Osimhen all through the encounter on Tuesday night.

According to Vanguard News, the victory over Napoli moves Real Madrid to the top of Group C after back-to-back victories as they seek to secure a ticket to the next round as early as possible.
