Fabinho has laughed off the embarrassment of his goal celebration gaff that saw the Liverpool midfielder end up in a heap on the pitch in Lisbon.
The Reds took the lead against Benfica in their Champions League quarter-final first leg when imposing centre-back Ibrahima Konate headed home his first goal for the club in the 17th minute and marked the occasion with a knee-slide towards the touchline.
Keen for a slice of the action, Fabinho attempted to imitate his teammates' celebration but instead of skidding across the surface, the Brazilian end up flipping into an ugly forward roll before landing in heap on the turf.

It sparked a reaction from wife Rebecca Taveras on Twitter, who asked: "What happened with fab celebration," alongside a number of laughing emojis. But it wasn't just his other half who piled in on him. Having gone on to help Luis Diaz celebrate Liverpool's third goal of the evening with a dance routine, the club's official website Tweeted: "The dance might be the safer option in future, @_fabinhotavares."
Accepting the feedback, Fabinho responded: "Noted," with a laughing emoji. With 37 appearances and seven goals from midfield, Fabinho has been one of Liverpool's outstanding performers in a stand-out season.
With Mohamed Salah off the pitch, the Brazilian was put on penalty-taking duties against Watford on Saturday, expertly dispatching a second half spot-kick to secure an important 2-0 win at Anfield.
Should the Reds manage to do the unthinkable and pull of the quadruple this season, it will be interesting to see where Fabinho's erratic celebration routine will go next.
