Grujic explains his rendition of Ronaldo's iconic celebration after Hertha goal

Marko Grujic says he could not stop himself from replicating Cristiano Ronaldo's iconic celebration after scoring for Hertha Berlin against Schalke on Friday.

The midfielder struck towards the end of the first half to cancel out Yevhen Konoplyanka's early opener and marked the occasion with a jump and a shout while spreading his arms out.

It looked very similar to the trademark style in which Juventus star Ronaldo revels in his goals, but the 22-year-old, on loan from Liverpool until the end of the season, says he did not plan to copy the five-time Ballon d'Or winner.
