Jonas Gutierrez finally got to break out his famous Spiderman goal celebration for the first time since joining Newcastle from Real Mallorca in the summer of 2008 after scoring a wonder goal in Saturday's 6-1 win over Barnsley. After scoring his first goal for Newcastle and not doing the Spiderman back in September, he promised he would do it for his next goal and he lived up to that promise, even if it meant playing every home game with a superhero mask in his jockstrap.

Said Gutierrez:

"I don’t know how long it’s been down there. It didn’t smell very nice when I put it on but I had to do it."

Wow, that was way more information than I needed. As for how the Spiderman celebration began:

"It all started in Spain. I went to the cinema and a little boy asked me to score a goal for him, so I told him I would put on a Spiderman mask as that was his favorite film.

"The next game I scored, so it carried on. People were talking about it when I signed for Newcastle. I can’t remember the last time I put one on. It’s been a long wait and I never thought it would take so long."

I'm sure your crotch is relieved, too.
