Oxford United drew a penalty in stoppage time of a 1-1 match on Saturday. So Christopher Maguire stepped up to take the kick, sent the goalkeeper the wrong way and buried his shot to win the match. But it was the celebration that really matters.

HE STRAIGHT UP STARED AT THE GOALKEEPER AND MOCKED HIM FOR GOING THE WRONG WAY.

Now let us say: we do not know what preceded this, what the goalkeeper did before the kick, what happened to get Oxford the penalty kick or any other potentially important circumstances that would lead Maguire to do this, but ...

This is amazing. Incredible. Amcredible.

There is taunting and then there is stepping into a goalkeeper's goal to make fun of him while he is mere feet away from you. And on something as innocent as going the wrong way on a penalty kick, which happens all the time.

Maguire is out here stunting and mocking on a level never before seen. He's a hero. Oxford United should get six points for this win.
