Cecilio Waterman led other players to celebrate with French legend Thierry Henry after he scored a late winner over the USA to qualify for the CONCACAF Gold Cup final.
Waterman came on as a second-half substitute to score the only goal of the match with a precise strike into the bottom left corner in the 94th minute.
The 33-year-old striker went wild as he jumped over the ad board and hugged Thierry Henry who was on punditry duty with CBS Sports.
Waterman’s teammates also joined him as they celebrated with the Arsenal legend.
