What's the story behind John McGinn's unique 'goggles' celebration?

John McGinn’s unique celebration will now be forever etched in Scotland’s World Cup history.

The Aston Villa midfielder’s goal in the 28th minute – coincidentally the number of years since the Scots were last in the tournament – against Haiti propelled Steve Clarke’s men to the top of Group C.

The goal led to Scotland’s first win at a World Cup since 1990 and put McGinn among some of Scotland’s greats to score at a World Cup.

He joined the likes of Archie Gemmill, Kenny Dalglish and Joe Jordan to score for the Scots at football’s biggest tournament.

McGinn’s celebration sees him cupping his thumbs and index fingers upside down in front of his eyes to mimic goggles.

And the former Hibs man previously revealed why he chooses to mark his goals with that signature move.

He said: “My nephew Jack has poor eyesight and has to wear goggles to play football. So I decided it would maybe give him a bit of support to put the goggles on when I score.

“His wee teammates up in Scotland carry on the celebration when they play, so he’s happy.

“A lot of children I played with when I was younger had to wear the goggles, and when you’re younger, it’s difficult, and you feel socially out of it.

“It’s just a wee nod to Jack, and now it’s stuck. Hopefully, if I’m scoring, I’m getting the goggles out and keep doing it.”
