Real Madrid defender Antonio Rüdiger was overcome with emotion as he celebrated his side’s 15th UEFA Champions League triumph, passionately screaming “SIERRA LEONE, SIERRA LEONE!” after the final whistle.

Rüdiger, born in Germany but with strong ties to Sierra Leone, played the full 90 minutes as Real Madrid overcame a spirited Borussia Dortmund side 2-0 at Wembley Stadium on Saturday night.

In a video that has swept across social media, the 31-year-old can be seen grabbing a Sierra Leonean flag from a supporter in the stands, waving it aloft as he joined his elated teammates in celebrating Real’s latest European crown. Dani Carvajal and Vinicius Junior scored the goals for Carlo Ancelotti’s men, who weathered a barrage of Dortmund pressure in the first half before sealing the victory with two second-half strikes.
