Hats off to the ‘Hips Don’t Lie’ star here.
If you didn’t capture the footage from Saturday then you need to get on it, because Stoke City and Switzerland forward Xherdan Shaqiri scored what will go down as a contender for goal of the tournament at Euro 2016.
It made us make funny noises.

Along with admiring the beautiful invention that was that goal, we found ourselves making several and increasingly unfunny Shakira-related puns in the immediate aftermath of Shakiri’s wonder strike… because they have similar names.
However, we didn’t expect the superstar and other half of Barcelona and Spain defender Gerard Piqué, to actually weigh in on the whole affair, but contribute she did, making a very interesting point in the process.
The first time in history that a couple both score goals in the Eurocup – Piqué and Shaquiri!!!

We can’t say that we knew about this “statistic”, but we’re sure Piqué will be thrilled.
