Folarin Balogun copied LeBron James’s celebration after scoring for the United States against Bosnia and Herzegovina at the 2026 World Cup.

According to L'Équipe, the United States and Monaco striker stamped his feet into the turf, then thumped his chest repeatedly, mirroring the basketball star’s routine.

The goal came on Wednesday in the round of 32, a tie the United States won 2-0.

The gesture echoed a James celebration seen prominently during his Miami Heat years from 2010 to 2014.

Many footballers follow basketball closely, and Balogun’s nod underlined that crossover.
