The 38-year-old, who takes the title of becoming World Cup’s oldest ever player to score an own goal, was too busy wrestling Ramos to see where the ball would end up. But the Real Madrid man wheeled away in celebration and tried to claim the goal as his own. BBC pundit Ferdinand tweeted with two laughing emojis: “Ramos celebrating the OG”. Talking about the incident at half-time, the Manchester United legend sarcastically commented: “Great celebrations though, really convincing.”
Ramos celebrating the OG 🤣🤣 1-0 #SPARUS

Cesc Fabregas would add: “He made us believe he scored” while Gary Lineker joked “You’ve got to try it though.”
Viewers took to Twitter to claim Ramos was channelling his inner Harry Kane. The England striker was mocked across the country by claiming team-mate Christian Eriksen’s goal in a game against Stoke last season.
One supporter said: “Ramos, even Harry Kane wouldn’t claim that!” another said: “Ramos claiming that goal. Harry Kane in disguise?”
